  You can HUP the server, but there's no guarantee it will continue to
work afterwards.  1.x is the same.

  Realistically, you can't HUP apache, either.  It looks like you can,
but behind the scenes it essentially re-starts from scratch.

  I've spent a fair amount of time looking into proper HUP handling. It
turns out *no one* does it well.  Almost all daemons simply restart.
