if { $inn_ovmethod == "ovdb" } {

Lame, but no more lame than some of the other stuff already there:

set inn_syslog_facility [exec echo [string tolower "@SYSLOG_FACILITY@"] | $inn_sed -e {s/log_//}]

There's some way to do this more naturally in Tcl, I'm sure, but I don't
know much about Tcl.

Ah, yes, thank you.  I'd missed that.
