Looks like 7.4, as amended in NetBSD over the years.   Looks like the
original.  tcpd.h has

 /*
  * @(#) tcpd.h 1.5 96/03/19 16:22:24
  * 
  * Author: Wietse Venema, Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands.
  */


$ nm -g /usr/lib/libwrap.so|egrep _severity
                 U allow_severity
                 U deny_severity

The man page says

       The allow_severity and deny_severity variables determine how accepted
       and rejected requests may be logged.  They must be provided by the
       caller and may be modified by rules in the access control tables.

and indeed see lines 68/89 of server/upsd.c which does exactly that.
