Check out this FAQ on how to hook up Log4perl to the Chainsaw appender, 
it explains how to get the Log4j formatting in:

     http://log4perl.sourceforge.net/d/Log/Log4perl/FAQ.html#ec4ff

Also, please note that if several sources are writing to the same socket 
appender, your messages might get mingled. Use a semaphore or similar 
mechanism to synchronize.
