Back when www.rmkhome.com was running on NetBSD 1.4, I tried to use newsyslog
to rotate the apache logs files. I found that it would rotate the files once,
create the new empty log files, but apache would be logging to the old file
descriptors, and nothing would get logged until I restarted apache. Has this
since been fixed? I'm now running NetBSD 2.0.1 on sparc64.
