Of course, it would be nice if the JBOSS group would contribute this work back
to the Log4j project so everyone could use it from one source, but I
digress....

I don't recall all the functionality of rolling policies/triggering policies in
Log4j-1.3, but I'm sure someting like this could be accomodated.  The rolling
policies are much more flexible in Log4j-1.3 than any of the specific the
RollingFileAppenders were in Log4j-1.2.  Maybe Ceki can fill in the gaps here? 
In any case, take a look at the 1.3 RollingFileAppender javadoc for more
details.
