Is there any benefit to using wildcards in newsyslog.conf? eg. I embed
the domain name for each logfile into the filename itself, so I've just
updated my newsyslog.conf with lines like:

/var/log/httpd-*-access.log 644  12 * $M1D0 GJB /var/run/httpd.pid 30
/var/log/httpd-*-error.log  644  12 * $M1D0 GJB /var/run/httpd.pid 30

Will this turn over the logfiles and then do the signal, or will the
signal be issued for each file from the expansion?
