Apache log rotation with mod_log_rotate question

First - thank you for developing the replacement for rotatelogs that you have posted... vast improvement!!

Now - my problem - once in a while after Apache rotates logs at midnight the new log file does not 'start' - the log information is retained in one of the two instances of Apache running (and that instance slowly uses more memory - probably storing the log data) and does not appear to write to the disk log file (the file size and date stamp do not change) - if I view the new log file, it has the accumulated information - if I stop/restart Apache it then writes the data to the log file and begins to record the information onto the disk as it is happening.

Thoughts??
