Right.  We also need to call reopen_logfile when the logfile changes.

Interestingly, state-file does the right thing, since we unlink it at
startup and recreate it at shutdown.

Somebody (probably me) needs to go through all the configuration file
directives and decide which ones make sense after startup.  For some, it's
not really clear cut -- if you chage the default hello interval, for
example, existing interfaces stay with the old value, but newly created
interfaces will get the new value.
