One of the folks who works with me at Afilias, Andrew Hammond, is
trying to clean up a patch he made to include the apache log rotator
"natively".  We've been looking at it because I'm worried about the
I/O our current approach imposes, and we need to have something to
compare it with.  I think he told me that he'll have a patch ready to
offer in a day or two.  Of course, it would depend on actually having
the rotator program sitting around somewhere.
