Ok thanks Perrin.  The script is actually running nicely as it is right
now on a server hosting 50 or so domains, although admittedly it's not
taking a massive number of hits (10,000 or so per day).

Does anyone how one could log errorlog entries in a similar manner to
the script above - ie pipe the errorlog to a script which appends one
copy of the error entry to a main error logfile and another copy to the
virtual host's error logfile?
