Please have a look at http://www.freebsd.org/~hm/newsyslog.tar.gz

I've added a new option (-o directory) to newsyslog to move the old logfiles
into another directory than the original ones.

This option was introduced, because it is not possible to move old logfiles
out of the way without potentially interfering with newsyslogs operation
(and finally parsing its configuration file before doing something).

Directory may be either relative (in that case the old logfiles are placed in
a directory below the one the current logfile is in) or absolute to collect
all old logfiles in a single directory.

A missing directory or any of its components will be created if not present.
