In the past I've used copy & truncate log rotate feature. Kinda racy though... some log bits might get lost between the copy & truncate parts. (on extremely loaded httpd systems)
The perk is the inode number stays the same. So there is even less reason to HUP Apache.

running children writing to the logs after it. So, you can't move the log as it still might have processes writing to it, so they do a HUP/restart to make sure logs are not being used before rotate.
I guess we could try switching it and see if we see any issues... if we compress logs they could get corrupted, but if we don't they might be ok.
The workaround here is to use `delaycompress` in logrotate.
