Bug #13914: Puppet master not logging to file

I'm running puppet 2.7.12 on CentOS 5.8. I'm having trouble getting the
puppet master to log to a file. The same configuration is working fine
for the puppet agent. A single line is written to the master's log file
when it starts. When logging to syslog or the console, I get lots of
output each time an agent talks to the master. When logging to a file, I
get nothing. The master does not even appear to have the log file open.
Below is my configuration and some shell output demonstrating the
problem.
`$ egrep -v '#|^$' puppet.conf`
<pre>
[main]
vardir = /var/lib/puppet
logdir = /var/log/puppet
rundir = /var/run/puppet
ssldir = $vardir/ssl
pluginsync = true
factpath = $vardir/lib/facter
autoflush = true
[agent]
server = redacted
classfile = $vardir/classes.txt
localconfig = $vardir/localconfig
listen = false
[master]
modulepath = redacted
storeconfigs = true
dbadapter = sqlite3
dblocation = $vardir/storeconfigs.sqlite
certname = redacted
</pre>
