>Description:
ejabberd-2.0.3 incorrectly uses /var/spool/ejabberd/ejabberd for its spool directory.
This makes it impossible to migrate from an earlier version of ejabberd because the existing database
structure is ignored. Also, at startup, ejabberd attempts to create the spool directory which will
cause a problem with permissions when it is corrected to /var/spool/ejabberd.
	
>How-To-Repeat:
Try running an upgraded ejabberd with an existing spool directory in /var/spool/ejabberd
and note that /var/spool/ejabberd/ejabberd is created with a new database structure in it.
	
>Fix:
Needs further analysis and testing before deploying as stable version.
