I know about 'N'. This isn't a solution. Yeah, maybe when disk will become
full svlogd will remove some log files. But what about all other software -
like MySQL? I don't think it's good idea to allow svlogd to fill all hdd
first and then fall into interesting endless loop: got 'disk full', remove
a couple of log files, work for a couple of minutes/seconds, got next
'disk full' error...
