OK.

I cannot reproduce this. It creates the following document:

  #+SEQ_TODO: TODO(!) PEND(!) DONE(!)

  * PEND test
    :LOGBOOK:
    - State "PEND"       from "TODO"       [2015-09-04 ven. 21:37]
    - State "TODO"       from              [2015-09-04 ven. 21:33]
    :END:

  ** PEND test2
     :LOGBOOK:
     - State "PEND"       from "TODO"       [2015-09-04 ven. 21:35]
     - State "TODO"       from              [2015-09-04 ven. 21:34]
     :END:
