If we are not backing up logfiles, remove the old logfile before trying to write
a new logfile, as otherwise the operation may fail if the previous logfile was
created by a different user.
This change is useful when:
- The DDX doesn't use the logfile backup mechanism (i.e. not Xorg)
- The DDX is run by a non-root user, and then by a different non-root user
- The logfile directory doesn't have the restricted-deletion flag set
