You mean you don't think that's the cause or you don't think it's
there? (When you HUP it, it re-execs itself, if you then HUPped it
again after it has restarted but before it has had a chance to set up
its handlers, it should die, right?)

On multiple dialups, the syslogd died at exactly the same time as
newsyslog ran.
