#41722: livecheck overwrites main.log

 "port livecheck foo" overwrites port foo's main.log file. This is
 unexpected.

 Even more unexpected was when I ran "port livecheck foo" while "port build
 foo" was running in another terminal window. (It was taking awhile, and I
 wanted to make sure I wasn't wasting time building an old version.) This
 resulted in a main.log file that contained the livecheck debug output,
 followed by lots of null bytes, followed by a portion of the build log.

 It would be great if livecheck would not write to the main.log file.
