I believe each script writer need to decide on a per message basis if
the message should be visible when VERBOSE=no (or kernel option quiet)
is used, and thus believe it is the wrong approach to move the test to
the log_* functions.  The skeleton example just happen to believe all
its messages should be hidden in quiet mode.
