I'm not sure it's 100% perfect. You should test it and make sure it's killing the logging processes correctly on logout.

Code:
if [ -z $PS1 ]
  then
        :
  else
    DATE="/bin/date"  SCRIPT="/usr/bin/script"
    LOGBASE="/log/cmdline_logs"
       if [ -d "${LOGBASE}" ]; then
           TIMESTAMP="$( ${DATE} +%Y%m%d%H%M%S )"
           LOGFILE="${LOGBASE}/${HOSTNAME}_${USER}_${TIMESTAMP}"
           umask 077
           [[ "${SHELL}" = "/bin/bash" && -e "${HOME}/.bash_profile" ]] && . ${HOME}/.bash_profile

                : > $LOGFILE.log
                ( tail -f $LOGFILE.log | /bin/logger ) &

                trap "kill $!" EXIT # Kill the logger subshell on exit

                ${SCRIPT} -a -f -q ${LOGFILE}.log

           [[ "${SHELL}" = "/bin/bash" && -e "${HOME}/.bash_logout" ]] && . ${HOME}/.bash_logout
           exit
       fi
fi
