Doesn't this still mean that a SIGHUP may give you a different
configuration to a full restart, even if you don't touch any of the
values that can't be changed via SIGHUP?

Perhaps we could stick with the current commented-out-defaults scheme if
SIGHUP reset all settings to their compiled-in defaults before rereading
the config file, i.e. the same logic as normal startup would do (except
for those cases where we can't change a setting at runtime).
