I think the real key is change snort so that the HUP mode to rotate logs works better than reexecing itself ( essentially a restart ).
Sounds more like you'd want Snort to have a maximum log size, and a maximum number of logs to keep around. BlackICE defender does that. DJB's various logging tools do that, too. You don't want to have to have a process that sits around watching the log file size, and hup Snort when it gets to a certain size.
