OK. No replies, so here is there patch.

The upside of this patch is that you can use any radius attribute in 
auth/proxy logs. The existing format can be achieved with:

log_auth_format = "[%{User-Name}] (from client %C port %{NAS-Port} 
cli %{Calling-Station-Id})"

The only downside (so far) is that if a variable like Calling-Station-Id is 
non existant in the request you will see "cli " in the line. With the 
existing system you wont see the "cli" word at all.

Is anyone vehmently against this patch or should I go ahead and commit it?

Cheers
