Scott, Thank you for explaining. I find it very considerate of you that you have taken the time. It seems that my initial reading of the FHS may have been a bit superficial. I now understand your point of view, and I agree with the status of wontfix. However, I will try to locate a relevant document on the Ubuntu wiki, and document the issue for posterity.
This issue also _needs_ to be in Lanchpad, even with status wontfix, because it is likely that this issue may be reported again by someone else, or related issues concerning /var/log (or others) on tmpfs. This is because of netbooks with SSD. A very common configuration is to put certain directories in tmpfs, to reduce write actions on the SSD. If you ever encounter other issues related to /var/log (or /var/tmp or /var/run), the you can mark them as a duplicate of this one.
