apache has a utility called rotatelogs which avoids the logrotate issue
altogether and doesn't require an apache restart; it does require that the
logs be cleaned up somehow afterwards, for example,
find <path-to-log-dir> -name "*log*" -mtime +6 -exec rm -f {} \;
Just 'man rotatelogs' to see how to use it. rotatelogs will show up as a
process for each reference in the apache cfg files.

Don't know. Doubt it. Avoided the issue altogether. ;-)
