Summary	0003075: Log block fails silently for non-creatable log files.
Description	If you try to set a log block, and the containing directory doesn't exist/isn't writable, unreal simply fails silently.
Steps To Reproduce	Create a log block to a file like: log/something.log, but don't create the directory log. Start ircd. It doesn't complain about not being able to write the log file, and simply silently fails any writes to that file.
Additional Information	Probably best to just do a writable test (ie: open for append then close) on the log file in _test_log?
Tags	No tags attached.
