The elisp docs talk about how to display a message, and how to disable
logging of that message. Is it possible to   do the converse, ie log a
message to *Messages* *without* displaying the message? I suppose I
could directly access that buffer with (messages-buffer) and write to
it -- but is there a builtin/blessed elisp call that does this?

Does the following help?

(let ((inhibit-message))
  (message "Hellau!"))
