Hi William, great to see you taking a look.

The logging is originating from libbitcoin and I don't believe that area
has changed much, and it does terminate all writes with std::endl:

https://github.com/libbitcoin/libbitcoin/blob/master/src/utility/logger.cpp#L51

But I can see the behavior you are describing. I don't at the present
see the reason for the delayed log flush.

The server console interaction (startup/shutdown) is distinct from the
logging behavior, and has been updated to be more consistent with bx
(e.g. using boost::program_options). This section does not terminate any
lines with std::endl. The reason the line returns are in text is to
facilitate integration of multi-line output in the case of eventual
localization. But that's not a significant issue, it's all in one place,
and I'd be happy to change it.
