Hi,

After a fresh install empty log files exist, but /var/account/acct
is missing.  If accounting=YES is set, it is created at reboot.  To
start accton on a running system, you need an additional touch.

I think it is more convenient if it exists from beginning.

Note that I kept it optional in /etc/mtree/special to avoid warnings
after upgrade.

ok?
