Thanks!
My recollection is that log4cxx exposes all environment variables in
the same way that LOG4J exposes JVM system properties. Which means
that you would just use ${HOME}/foo.log to create a foo.log directory
in the user's home directory. Also, I believe that the current SVN
HEAD also exposes the equivalent of some of the built-in Java
properties so you could also do ${java.io.tmpdir}/foo.txt or $
{user.home}/foo.txt.
