I went one step further and made it log to a separate syslog facility.
I changed LOG_DAEMON to LOG_LOCAL0 in openlog() in ftpd and added
"local0.info  /var/log/ftp" to /etc/syslog.conf.   This makes it real easy to
see what people are up to without wading through a bunch of random daemon info.
You have 8 "local" facilities to play with, so you might as well use them.
