Well, exactly. Possible anyway if there were some downtime.
However a server could apply the rule that it would write the date if and
only if at least 23.5 hours had elapsed since the last request, and argue
that it was being sensible. But I assume from the comments about IIS that it
wouldn't even do that if the logs were being rotated weekly. Of course, it
is exactly these low-frequency logs which might plausibly be rotated only
weekly.
