Works for me.

Note that you don't actually need to the formatting of the log file name
yourself, LogInit() already has code to replace "%s" in the log file name with
the display name.

If your going to do a release soon-ish, you might considered disabling the
call to winRestoreModeKeyStates() in winmultiwindowwndproc.c.  The code which
tries to synchronize locking key states (e.g. caps lock, etc.) between X and
Windows has broken, so is now toggling the modifiers in X every time an X
window gains focus.  Having the lock state in X just unsynchronized instead
might be marginally less irritating until I get a chance to work on a proper fix.
