How can you define a destination with a widlcard?
Think : copy file-a.txt to {widlcard} 
where wildcard is not defined when copy starts executing, 
and then tell me where file-a.txt is after the copy completes?

Maybe you think of xxxx as shown below!
# R is a rolling file appender  --- not used yet / no need to parse
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.Append=true
log4j.appender.R.File=${xxxx}logs/tomcat.log
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=2MB
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n

now xxxx is your exported environment variable or a logical 
and it needs to be defined unless your log will be written at 

./logs/tomcat.log

   1. log4j.appender.FILE=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
   2. log4j.appender.FILE.File={xxxx}/file.log

where the xxxx is the wildcard
