Hi,

First of all, thanks for Unicorn, it's a fantastic tool.

I'm starting a Unicorn 3.3.1 master process as root on an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 
host, and dropping to an unprivileged user in the workers after forking. This 
all works fine. 

I have confirmed that logrotate creates the logs with a 0600 umask and the 
uid/gid of my unprivileged user (per my logrotate config, loosely based on the 
example logrotate.conf from 3.4 or 3.5). 

The problem occurs when I send a USR1 signal to the master process (as root, 
because the master is running as root) after the logs have been rotated. As 
near as I can tell, after that the Unicorn master chowns the logs to root 
ownership. Then, the workers attempt to chown the logs back to ownership by the 
unprivileged user, which repeatedly fails, spewing megabytes of errors that 
look like:

I looked at Unicorn::Util.reopen_logs, which is where the exception originates, 
and clearly has code intended to deal with this 
(https://github.com/defunkt/unicorn/blob/v3.3.1/lib/unicorn/util.rb#L56), but 
it doesn't appear to be doing the right thing in my circumstance. It's not 
apparent to me at a glance why this is failing.

I'm not subscribed to the list, so please cc: my on replies.

Thanks for any input you may have,
