But that won't work from inside the chroot will it :)
Here's how to emulate it:
echo test | nc -uU /var/lib/dhcpcd/run/systemd/journal/dev-log

I wonder if it's fixable though. Does this fix it?
mkdir -p /var/lib/dhcpcd/run/systemd/journal
mount --bind /run/systemd/journal /var/lib/dhcpcd/run/systemd/journal
Does it work then?
