Okay -- that log was from a local manual build, outside of the Debian
package build infrastructure.  The log-rotation self check fails in both
environments, and on every invocation now.  It also happens on most
Debian build architectures, but for some reason not on mips64el and
s390x:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=shepherd&suite=experimental

There are other failures in there, but let's fix one thing at a time...

I instrumented the Debian package build system to patch the script to
print debug info, below is that log output, is this better?
