error logs can end up in /dev/null unexpectedly

           Summary: error logs can end up in /dev/null unexpectedly
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: 1.3.29
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: tt@createservices.com


In spite of having "ErrorLog syslog:local1" in httpd.conf I have found that an
error produced by not having the right ip address to bind to ends up in /dev/null.
Here follows a fragment of truss...

7492:   open("/dev/null", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0666) = 2
7491:   write(1, 0x000390A1, 36)                        = 36
7491:      . / a p a c h e c t l   s t a r t s s l :   h t t p d   s t a r

7804:   write(2, 0x002A2D1C, 129)                       = 129
