Nope, that's not the reason. The UNIX portion of OS X does not reside 
in Utilities, nor cares a whit about what's located there.

I'm not sure what "normal UNIX routines" you're referring to, but the 
rotation of the daily logs should take place at 4:30am (IIRC) and takes 
all of five seconds. It's hard to tell that it's even happened (but of 
course, if the machine is asleep it won't happen). It's not really very 
important whether or not this happens on a daily basis -- you can go a 
long time without the "UNIX routines" happening and nothing bad will 
come of it.

I generally use OnyX or some utility like that to manually do the "UNIX 
cleanups" about once a month. It's a good habit to be in IMHO.
