Consider the fact that the user submitting the file might not have write 
permission to the current directory or to the directory where the 
procedure is located, but very probably does to SYS$LOGIN.

I prefer the default.  I certainly don't want my procedure directory 
cluttered up with log files.  Current directory?  Then one has to look 
for it if one forgets what it was.

Don't like the default?  Change it with the qualifier.  Use a logical 
name like LOG_DIR.

Again, change it.

$  SUBMIT :== SUBMIT/NOPRINT/LOG=LOG_DIR
