Yes, it's been an issue for a long time. The dump file is opened
per-connection, so some of the pre-connection activity can't be
logged. Usually this isn't really a problem, because most problems
aren't in the library proper, but in the interaction with the server,
and it has the advantage of automatically truncating the log on every
connection. But it has its awkwark moments, including initialization
issues and on webservers, where a per-connection log is useless.
