   $FREEM_LOG_THRESHOLD_FILE
   Overrides the configured threshold at which log messages are written to files in /var/log/freem, corresponding to the log_threshold_file environment setting in $PREFIX/etc/env.conf. The default value is "info".
   .TP
   $FREEM_LOG_THRESHOLD_SYSLOG
   Overrides the configured threshold at which log messages are sent to the syslog facility on systems that support it, corresponding to the log_threshold_syslog environment setting in $PREFIX/etc/env.conf. The default value is "info".
   .TP
   $FREEM_LOG_THRESHOLD_STDERR
   Overrides the configured threshold at which log messages are sent to stderr, corresponding to the log_threshold_stderr environment setting in $PREFIX/etc/env.conf. The default value is "warning".
   .SH LOG THRESHOLD VALUES
   This section details the valid values for each of the $FREEM_LOG_THRESHOLD_* environment variables, and each value indicates a minimum diagnostic level at which the indicated class of message will be delivered through the selected mechanism. All messages with an equal or higher diagnostic level than the class indicated will be delivered, i.e., if "warning" is selected, messages with a diagnostic class of warning, error, and fatal will be delivered through the selected mechanism.
   
   Valid values for each of these environment variables are as follows:
   .TP
   debug
   Messages useful mostly for developers contributing to FreeM itself. Will produce a high volume of log messages, and is likely to impact system performance. Not recommended for production usage.
   .TP
   info
   Includes messages of an informational nature. Will produce a moderately high volume of log messages. For heavily multi-user and multi-process systems, it is recommended to use "warning" instead.
   .TP
   warning
   Includes warning messages. These indicate conditions (including retries when attempting to acquire semaphores) that warrant further investigation by the system operator, but do not typically prevent applications from running.
   .TP
   error
   Includes error messages. This class of messages indicates that a recoverable error has occurred in the FreeM engine. Warrants immediate attention by the system operator.
   .TP
   fatal
   Includes messages indicating errors that are not recoverable. If this class of message occurs, the process that triggered the message has terminated abnormally. Requires immediate system operator intervention, and can indicate gross misconfiguration of the FreeM engine or the host operating system environment, or even a FreeM bug.
