 We use SIGHUP to cause Tor to reopen its logs after a rotation, but
 currently this SIGHUP is not passed along to a managed proxy (ie
 obfsproxy).  The only way to automatically tell obfsproxy to reopen logs
 without finding its process and sending a SIGHUP manually is to do a full
 tor restart, which will kill and restart the managed proxy as well.
 Perhaps all SIGHUPs to Tor should just be passed along to any (unchanged
 argument) managed proxies?
