> sync with the slaves binary log positions
I need to quibble with the terminology. Do are you really referring to the Slave's "binlog"?...

A Master has "binary logs" ("binlogs").
A Slave has "relay logs".
A Slave _may_ have binlogs, too, if it replicating to (being master to) other Slaves. (Maybe MEB requires Slaves to turn on binlogging?)

The two or three logs contain the same information (barring replicate/binlog-do/ignore-* statements), but the are _not_ interchangeable. FLUSH LOGS and other actions cause a log file to be closed and a new one to be started, but _only_ on the machine where the FLUSH LOGS is performed.

That is, filename and position are machine-specific.
