Yes, we do it here...syslog/syslog-ng either works fine.

Set "log_destination = syslog" and

log {
         syslog_facility = daemon
}

in your radiusd.conf.  That will get your authentication/authorization 
logs going to syslog under the "daemon" facility.  This is all in the 
documentation, BTW.

If you search the list archives, you'll see where Alan kindly pointed 
out to me where to make some modifications so accounting info could be 
syslog'd as well - I have not had time to do it yet.

HTH,
Craig
