It does log, just not to the named log file (check your syslog).  This
was discussed on the list recently in the context of a single-use daemon
over ssh, but the bug is the same.  One patch is here:

You'll also find this is fixed in the latest CVS version (which is
available in the latest "nightly" tar file).
