Nothing reliable, so please check before opening bugs.

I know fail2ban and logcheck do read plain-text logs (although as
mentioned, fail2ban already has native Journal-reading support too), and I
would guess that fwlogwatch, snort and xwatch probably also read the logs.

>From my limited knowledge of what they do, I would guess that approx,
hippotat, inetutils-*d, request-tracker*, *inetd and spamd are just log
sources that need a syslog-compatible logging sink, for which either
journald or a traditional syslogd should be equally valid.

The others, no idea.
