see the the Filelogger class under server\lib\catalina.jar
so you can do one thing write your own Filelogger class which is exactly same
as Filelogger just copy it
and just remove the date from pathname definition inside the open method.
and just compile and use it as your own file logger.

private void open()
{
File dir = new File(directory);
if(!dir.isAbsolute())
dir = new File(System.getProperty("catalina.base"), directory);
dir.mkdirs();
try
{
String pathname = dir.getAbsolutePath() + File.separator + prefix +
date + suffix;
writer = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(pathname, true), true);
}
catch(IOException e)
{
writer = null;
}
}
extend fileLogger class which is in server\lib\catalina.jar

I hate to do it, considering all the work involved and the fact that I'll
have to ensure that it gets included in every installation of Tomcat from
here on out (until we get to 5.5) but I have little choice. I can't believe
the option is not already a part of the FileLogger class.

Yup. But is it really worth it? Logger is gone in 5.5 in place of
commons-logging.
