Summary: absolute logdir produces other path than relative

Initial Comment:
from gdk_logger.mx:

    if (MT_path_absolute(logdir))
        snprintf(filename, BUFSIZ, "%s%c%s%c%s%c", logdir, DIR_SEP, dbname,     
DIR_SEP, fn, DIR_SEP);
    else {
        char *dbfarm = GDKgetenv("gdk_dbfarm");
        snprintf(filename, BUFSIZ, "%s%c%s%c%s%c%s%c", dbfarm, DIR_SEP, dbname, 
DIR_SEP, logdir, DIR_SEP, fn, DIR_SEP);
    }

problem here is that on the default for SQL of sql_logs, the actual logdir 
becomes: /dbfarm/dbname/sql_logs/sql/
Now if I set an absolute logdir to /dbfarm/dbname/sql_logs (user visible part), 
the actual logdir becomes: /dbfarm/dbname/sql_logs/dbname/sql/
this is unexpected, as dbname is magically inserted.  I suggest removing the 
dbname, such that the absolute equivalent of a relative logdir yields in the 
same path.

Message:
The absolute pathname option is for backward compatibility.  With the
previous release, if you used your path /dbfarm/dbname/sql_logs in the
logdir option, the result would also be
/dbfarm/dbname/sql_logs/dbname/sql/.  This cannot be changed
retroactively.
I'm closing this with Won't Fix.
