Of course if the design is that files are opened and then permissions are dropped (as seems to be the case on further reading: http://wiki.rsyslog.com/index.php/Security#Dropping_Privileges), then HUP needs to be ignored completely somehow and the reload command in the init scripts needs reverting back to a simple alias for restart.
