possible solution

Sorry. That patch was nonsense. At that time, there is options variable
still empty. It would require to take the block under reading
configuration files and parsing commandline options. But at that time,
there is possible that there is opened -E logfile which we can't close
and reopen. This is not a problem with syslog.

* We do not open config file until we open log file (which makes sense)
* We should close hanging file descriptors before we open log file
(which is file descriptor)
dependency hell ...

This would require some more changes in upstream. Proposing to move
this check further and reopen log, if required.
