how to specify pid file ? (for newsyslog)

[Илья Шипицин]

hi,

on freebsd I need to specify pid file in order to send a signal to rotate
log:

/etc/newsyslog.conf:

/var/log/bird.log   600  7 100  @0101T JC
/var/run/bird.pid SIGHUP
...


is there a way to write a pid to file ? I haven't found any

Cheers,
