---------------------+-----------------------
On RHEL6 the init-script pipes stdout and stderr to /dev/null, which means
that any startup-errors will be lost.

It would in many cases be helpful to have these errors to a logfile.

Current behaviour is easy to reproduce if you pass an invalid parameter to
varnishd via DAEMON_OPTS in /etc/sysconfig/varnish

Comment (by lkarsten):

This is fixed as of today in Varnish 4.1 init scripts for EL6/EL7.

Leaving this open until we figure out if it should be added to 4.0 as
well.
