actually send httpd a USR1 rather than a hup. There is a slight
difference.  A HUP will tell the server to immedialty stop and reload its
config and reopen its log files while dropping the connection that anyone
might have to your web server.  A USR1 on the otherhand will do the same
thing, but let any server processes with an open connection finish what
they are doing before those processes do that same thing.
