[log] logfile not created where expected

hi,

I encountered a bug, most probably, in Boost.Log

It is reproduceable in the tutorial_logging.cpp :

https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_74_0/libs/log/example/doc/tutorial_logging.cpp

The short code should create a file named "sample.log". But it does not, 
instead it creates a file called "00000.log", with the expected lines 
logged in that file.

If I compile and run exactly the same tutorial in Boost 1.70, the file 
sample.log is indeed created with the same content.

The problem is already there in Boost 1.73

What is the problem? Is there a workaround for it?

Thanks, regards, Barend
