Basically our startup scripts completely delete the statuscache.db file on 
startup, so "migrating" isn't an issue for us at all.

So if you want to make it platform independent for others in the future, I'm 
fine with that.

It's not necessary, it was just helpful for debugging rather than having to 
recompile everything. From memory, clients make SO many status calls, that 
it can completely flood the log if you leave the syslog calls in.
