newsyslog.conf(5):

             G       indicates that the specified logfile_name is a shell pat-
                     tern, and that newsyslog(8) should archive all filenames
                     matching that pattern using the other options on this
                     line.  See glob(3) for details on syntax and matching
                     rules.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
