As outlined in ticket #266:
The SyslogUdpHandler constructor has a sixth parameter "ident", defaulting to "php".
However, the current Monolog Bundle implementation allows setting only the first five. Which defaults to the "ident" being set to "php".
In our case, we are using papertrail as a log backend, and use the same webserver for multiple small projects. In papertrail, that results in the following output:
