After I have successfully compiled syslog-ng-1.0.6rc3, I run src/tests/testall script but it failed.

Config file is syslog-ng.conf.eval.

source src { unix-stream("input"); };

destination d1 { file("d1"); };

destination d2 { file("d2"); };

destination d3 { file("d3"); };

destination d4 { file("d4"); };

destination d5 { file("d5"); };

destination d6 { file("d6"); };

destination d7 { file("d7"); };

filter f1 { facility(local0); };

filter f2 { facility(local1) and level(debug); };

filter f3 { facility(local2) and not level(debug); };

filter f4 { not (facility(local3) and level(debug)); };

filter f5 { facility(local4) or level(info); };

filter f6 { facility(local4) or not level(info); };

filter f7 { not (facility(local4) or level(info)); };

log { source(src); filter(f1); destination(d1); };

log { source(src); filter(f2); destination(d2); };

log { source(src); filter(f3); destination(d3); };

log { source(src); filter(f4); destination(d4); };

log { source(src); filter(f5); destination(d5); };

log { source(src); filter(f6); destination(d6); };

log { source(src); filter(f7); destination(d7); };

Error message is like:

+ rm 'd?'

rm: cannot remove `d?': No such file or directory

I appreciate somebody tell me why. I have also found some “?” files in the direcotory starting syslog-ng daemon.

What can these “?”  be used?
