Description David Schleef 2005-07-27 07:53:43 UTC 
The modular build should create ${localstatedir}/log, since the existence of the
directory is required to start the server.
Comment 1 Kevin E. Martin 2005-07-28 14:07:23 UTC 
Normally this is handled with "--localstatedir=DIR" when running configure, but
since we're building from the build.sh script, it needs to be created.
Fixed.

Hacked image to describe what i should see

Changing the build script only masks the bug in the server.  Patch attached.
