My suggestion is to not change syslogd at all, and to use a modified
version of newsyslog (or a new tool sharing come code with it) as
a pipe destination for syslogd, which requires new development (code to
copy stdin to a file, monitoring whether the rotating condition is met
on that file, and rotating it when appropriate).

Thomas.
