Description:
The sample config files include a commented-out line for innodb_log_arch_dir, however uncommenting this line results in an unknown variable error.

How to repeat:
"Uncomment the following if you are using InnoDB tables"

Noted in 6.0.8 changelog.

The innodb_log_arch_dir system variable is no longer available but 
was present in some of the sample option files included with MySQL
distributions (such as my-huge.cnf). The line was present as a
comment but uncommenting it would cause server startup failure so the
line has been removed.
