You are reading the sudoers manual for version 1.8.6 but you are
running 1.7.10.  The escape sequences in iolog_dir are only supported
for sudo 1.8.x.  If you look at the sudo 1.7.10 manual you will see
no mention of them.

    http://www.sudo.ws/sudo/man/1.7.10/sudoers.man.html

If you want to use this feature you will need to upgrade your sudo.

To fix the DISPLAY_LAST_LOGIN issue you will need to add a sudo
entry to /etc/pam.conf.  The following should do the trick:

sudo session required libpam_hpsec.so.1 bypass_umask bypass_last_login

The configure script tells you this when it is run but there should
probably be an entry in the troubleshooting guide about it too.
