Default Filesystem /var "stuck" at 105% full

For reasons I haven't figured out yet, X is making a massive log file in /var/log (Xorg.0.log) that quickly fills up whatever filesystem it's mounted on. The temporary workaround is theoretically deleting this log file to free up space... however, when I do this, the filesystem still says it's full!

Is there a 'recycle bin' feature I might be missing?

I'm giving OpenBSD a go courtesy a LiveCD (MarBSD).

Here's the outputs of df and mount for reference:
Code:
$ df -h
