Thanks.

It might not be right for all cases, but I think this is saving us in few cases
when the caller (directly or indirectly) has sent elevel as ERROR or FATAL,
in such cases we just want to LOG it, if strict is not true. Now it might not
be appropriate if the caller has sent DEBUG2 and we use LOG, but to
fix it (if this sounds an issue), some more analysis is required, so let's
keep it as it is for now.
