well i've thought about these, but are they critical?

we might have no /etc/logcheck/header.txt,
and actually we do have no /etc/logcheck/footer.txt
so aboves fails anyway.

i would prefer to still report and forget aboves *txt,
but i might be wrong.

actually on my server i had an bad acl and logcheck
had no read access to /etc/logcheck/header.txt,
logcheck still reported security events, i found that neat.

a++ maks
