Sounds interesting - I'd probably go with a similar approach if it was just me.
For our user base, IIS tends to equate to unsophisticated smaller IT shops, so
I'm aiming at a solution with as little moving parts as possible.

I have a modified Apache's logrotate that runs as a service
and listens on a pipe. Opening log files is then
fopen("\\\\PIPE\\.\\isapi_redirect_log")
The drawback is that additional service has to be installed
but it eliminates all the problems with process redirection
especially with multiple worker processes.
Also there is no need to change any of the current logging code
inside isapi_redirect.
