Bug Description

I'm using Ubuntu 16.10 dev with os-prober 1.70ubuntu3 and if I'm masking systemd-journald.service, rebooting the system and then executing "update-grub" different linux images are still successfully being registered on grub but if an operating system is being checked with os-prober (in this case an old Windows XP installation) I'm getting several lines of "logger: socket /dev/log: No such file or directory" and the related operating system is not being registered on grub.
