           Summary: syslog-ng supervisor dies on SIGHUP
           Product: syslog-ng
           Version: 3.3.x
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: unspecified
         Component: syslog-ng
        AssignedTo: bazsi at balabit.hu
        ReportedBy: bugzilla.syslogng at feystorm.net
Type of the Report: ---
   Estimated Hours: 0.0


The process which supervises syslog-ng and restarts it in the event of a crash dies when it receives a SIGHUP. This is a problem as when sending a HUP to
syslog-ng to have it reload its config, the HUP will get sent to both the supervisor process and the worker process if doing something like `pkill -HUP
syslog-ng`.
I attached a gdb to the supervisor and its not a segfault or anything, it just quits. I'm guessing the supervisor doesnt have a signal handler for HUP, so it
uses the default action which is to quit.
