I kept log-file since, we have only a log file. Once jan will commit access
log (already in couchbase) we could add access-log as well. Also since view dir
can be different I kept this option as well.
If it's OK will commit it later today.

> Developers may want to write plugins (like GeoCouch) for CouchDB. Many hooks
> in the configuration system allow loading arbitrary Erlang modules to handle
> various internal tasks, but currently there is no straightforward and
> portable way for developers of these plugins to discover the location of the
> CouchDB library files.
> Two options that have been proposed are to use pkg-config or install a
> separate script that could be invoked (e.g. as couch-config --erl-libs) to
> discover important CouchDB installation paths.
> As far as I know the loudest argument against pkg-config is lack of support
> for Windows.
