Put a favicon.ico there?

The web server has no idea if an attempt to get a missing file shouldn't
be logged in some cases and not others.  And all the major web browsers
automatically look for /favicon.ico so it's going to happen.

You might be able to redirect to an existing page but I think those might
get logged anyway.
