logging doesn't work (using command line options)

[fschmitt]

To debug cellwriter with respect to bug #766954, i tried to start cellwriter with command line options --log-file=/home/user/cellwriter.log and --log-level=8 (as described in the cellwriter manpage) to make cellwriter write some logging output to a logfile. But the logfile stays empty. Cellwriter ignores other command line options, too, for example --help. Didn't check any other options.
