I've put a tarball of my enhancements to newsyslog on 

 http://www.freebsd.org/~hm/newsyslog.tar.gz

The differences to the in-tree versions are:

 - ability to archive rotated logfiles into a separate configurable
   directory
 - provide another method (in addition to the ISO 8601 format) of
   specifying log rotation times, i.e. it is now possible to specify
    rotate at the last day of every month at midnight     or
    rotate every week on Sunday at 23:00 hr
 - much clean up source, run through bde's KNF filter

The changes have in part or full already been reviewed by Sheldon Hearn
and Gary Jennejohn.

This version of newsyslog runs on several production (3.4) machines 
since November 3, 1999 without problems.

If there are no strong objections, i'll commit it to current.
