Just to clarify, I know you said no syslog, the second link i posted has:

In C-code:

fp_console = fopen("/dev/console","w")
if ( ! stat("filename",&stat_buf) )
	/* normal action here */
else  /* error output to console */
      fprintf(fp_console,"Error: cannot open file");

near the top of it plus pros and cons etc, I'm assuming that is the kind of thing you were after.
