restarting rsyslog is probably not necessary for the most recent operating 
systems.

i found that on some systems, logrotate did not manage open file handles 
properly.  when logrotate rotated the weewx log file, (r)syslog would 
continue to write to the log that had been rotated.

do you know of a way to ensure proper logrotate behavior that works on all 
operating systems and all operating system versions?
