Because it's still in the testing phase, and because not everyone wants
logs in their packages (I don't, for example).  Since I also added both an
in-script and command-line control mechanism, it's easy enough to turn on.

The decision to turn the logs off by default was made after I tried to use
the g-b-s to build a package recently.  If enough people complain, I'll
add a symmetric mechanism for turning logging off and use that in my
packages instead.
