Thank you, but it is forgetting pg_ctl --help output.  I added it
and moved logrotate entry in docs just above "kill" in
app-pg-ctl.html. Also added "-s" option.

Furthermore, I did the following things.

- Since I'm not sure unlink is signal-handler safe on all
  supported platforms, I moved unlink() call out of
  checkLogrotateSignal() to SysLoggerMain, just before rotating
  log file.

- Refactored moving the main stuff to syslogger.c. 

- The diff is splitted into two files and renamed. (but version
  number continues to v5).

I'm not certain whether to allow the signal file alone cause
rotation, but this patch doesn't. Directly placed signal file is
to be removed without causing rotation.

Please find the attached.

regards.
