 On Leopard, gnucash 2.2.7 retains all log files forever regardless of the
 appropriate setting in the preferences.

 The root cause is that Leopard's strptime() is broken, and always returns
 NULL in gnc_file_be_remove_old_files().

 The reason why I am logging a bug against the port is that there appears
 to be an alternative version of strptime() supplied with the gnucash
 distribution, presumably for use on operating systems where no local
 implementation of this function is provided. I would like to suggest that
 the portfile is modified so that the gnucash's 'configure' script
 overrides
 that native strptime(). I don't know how to do this and would be grateful
 for a workaround.
