Have you verified that this is safe for all the daemons we have that
are logging stuff ?  I can't think of ones offhand, but there are
sometimes cases where you need to use  'delaycompress' instead, if
the daemon cannot be told to immediately stop writing to the old
log, instead needing an async signal to close & re-open the log.

Regards,
Daniel
