Just a side note: forum is still eating data (originally
"P<project>" was here), you may want to consider using mailing
list directly instead.

There is no variables support in error_log directive (and it's
unlikely to appear), so "...error_log" file is expected. Use
common error_log for all vhosts instead.

Variables in access_log should work as of 0.7.4+. On the other
hand, named captures in regular expressions only supported in
0.8.25+. Are you sure you see "...access_log" file? Which
version you are using?
