This is where it puts any of the 'extra' logging data that happens when 
you select that from the BX GUI.  From what I can tell in earlier RedHat 
and BX editions it's apparently a legacy location, since ...chroot/var/log 
would likely make more sense.

In the RH 5 distro at least, the install package did NOT create that 
directory.  I found this out after wiping years of patched and hacked 
named stuff and creating a fresh install.  It didn't complain until I 
turned on extra logging.

So it sounds like the BX install should create the dir or put the info 
into one of the existing chroot places least.
