--- Comment #1 from Ben RUBSON <ben.rubson@gmail.com> ---
This patch would be really useful for Apache :
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/stopping.html
"At present there is no way for a log rotation script using USR1 to know for
certain that all children writing the pre-restart log have finished. We sug=
gest
that you use a suitable delay after sending the USR1 signal before you do
anything with the old log."

So this patch really helps, as we can then choose not to compress the first
rotated file.

Could we think about committing / MFCing it please ?

Many thanks !

Ben
