Hmmm... that looks fine to me. What happens if you run:
# newsyslog -v
I assume that newsyslog is actually running every hour -- that's the
default from the system crontab:
% grep newsyslog /etc/crontab
0 * * * * root newsyslog
and that the other system logs are all being cycled as intended.
Cheers,
Matthew
