VSFTPD not logging...why?

VSFTPD (compiled from source, version 1.2.1) isn't writing to
/var/log/xferlog or /var/log/vsftpd.log, even tho /etc/vsftpd.conf is
correctly configured:

xferlog_enable=YES
xferlog_std_format=YES
xferlog_file=/var/log/xferlog
dual_log_enable=NO
vsftpd_log_file=/var/log/vsftpd.log
log_ftp_protocol=NO
syslog_enable=NO


When syslog_enable=YES, vsftpd writes to /var/log/messages.
vsftpd is called by xinetd, and works correctly in every other respect.

wu_ftpd has been disabled, and it wrote to /var/log/xferlog correctly.

Does anyone have any idea why vsftpd wouldn't write to its logs?
