Ok, here are the logs from last night

2008-08-26 04:00:02 EDT [25407]  LOG:  received SIGHUP, reloading
configuration files
2008-08-26 04:00:02 EDT [22649]  LOG:  autovacuum launcher shutting down
2008-08-26 04:00:02 EDT [30438]  LOG:  autovacuum launcher started


you can see the SIGHUP, the launcher being shut down, and starting right
back up again ???

is this expected behaviour ?
