Hello, 

Logging to a pipe is dangerous, because if no one reads from pipe write system 
call will block after internal kernel buffer is full.
If write is not non-blocking and  is not wrapped into 
poll/select/epoll/whatever else (Normally, log calls are blocking), the whole 
dnsmasq process will stuck.

You can rotate log files more often and process log file after rotation.
