I solved this problem. It appears that chainsaw is expecting logger in place of
category in the XMLLayout output file. By modifying XMLFileHandler like so, I was
able to get it to work correctly.

mThreadName = aAtts.getValue("thread");
mTimeStamp = Long.parseLong(aAtts.getValue("timestamp"));
mCategoryName = aAtts.getValue("logger");
+ if (mCategoryName == null) {

+ }
mPriority = Priority.toPriority(aAtts.getValue("level"));
} else if (TAG_LOCATION_INFO.equals(aQName)) {
mLocationDetails = aAtts.getValue("class") + "."
We're still using category instead of logger in our code, even though it's deprecated
(there are a fair number of areas to be changed. Should Chainsaw be modified to work
both ways? )
