This is not a valid bug anymore (if it ever was), as with the move to systemd, sysv calls redirect to systemd, and systemd captures the information in the journal, which can be viewed by looking at /var/log/syslog, using "journalctl -u php5-fpm" (php7.0-fpm for Xenial), or any other mechanism for reading the syslog/journal.
