yep, confirming Alejandro here. Rather to do it internally, we suggest to use
'lograte' to do it, which is a more generic approach, since it controls the
"roation" of other daemon logs too, and can do gzip'ing of the old logs and you
can configure how file name date appending takes place, and now long your
history should be preserved.

Also there is a section the user's guide at
