    Bug #33693 general log name and location depend on PID file, · 10390cec

               not on predefined values
    
    The default name of the PID file was constructed, as documented, 
    based on the hostname.  This name was subsequently used as the
    base for the general log file name.   If the name of the PID
    file was overridden in the configuration, and no explicit name
    was set for the general log file, the path location for the
    PID file was used also for the general log file.
                      
    A new variable, 'default_logfile_name', has been introduced.  This name
    is constructed based on the hostname, and is then used to
    construct both the PID file and the general log file.
                      
    The general log file will now, unless explicitly set, be
    located in the server data directory (as documentated in
    the server docs)
