Since you have created a read-only file system, I'd say the socket is attempting to bind to a read-write (full-duplex) socket, given the "log" in the name. Just creating the socket is unlikely to be blocked by your read-only file system, since it doesn't consume an i-node until it is bound to a name, or more specifically, the system doesn't know what permissions apply until it is bound.
