I'm curious, though... The man page for hobbitd says that SIGHUP will cause
hobbitd to "Re-read the bb-hosts configuration file."
Does that mean the example below with the postrotate command will actually
work as intended, or will it only have hobbitd re-read the config file?

It does in fact work. SIGHUP triggers both a configfile reload, and a
re-opening of the logfiles.
