    usr.sbin/newsyslog   newsyslog.8 newsyslog.c 
  Log:
  MFC *: Add a command-line option of '-s', which indicates that newsyslog
  should not send a signal to any processes.  Also add a config-file flag
  of 'N' or 'n', which indicates that the given logfile has no process which
  needs a signal when it is rotated.  Both of these are based on changes
  NetBSD has made, although the implementation is somewhat different.
  
  Also add a command-line option of '-R somename', which indicates that
  newsyslog should rotate all files given on the command, even if they
  don't seem to need to be rotated.
  
  This also brings in some other minor improvements, such as improving the
  interactions between specific log files given on the command line, and
  config-file entries which specify a filename-pattern (flag 'G').
