[icecast] Icecast2 log and yp behaviour

Hrmmm.. Yes, this wouldn't work currently. It should be very easy to make it 
work, however. Just find (in src/sighandler.c) where it says 
    /* reopen logfiles (TODO: we don't do this currently) */
and add calls to log_reopen(errorlog); log_reopen(accesslog);

Oh, and then actually implement log_reopen(), since it's currently an empty 
function. That might be marginally harder... 

But yet - you're right that it doesn't work, and it definately SHOULD work.
