Can't be bothered to go look at the script, but it should be doing a "flush logs"
somewhere. The line is commented by default because MySQL will recreate it's logfiles
automatically, and you should only uncomment it if you really feel the need to pre-create
the files with other than default permissions or owners.

Then something else is wrong. Does your MySQL daemon happen to run as a user who can
normally not create files in the directory where the log files are?

It should - a well-configured system doesn't need it.
