Hmm, interesting, manpages are our best friends indeed:
     sshd rereads its configuration file when it receives a hangup signal,
     SIGHUP, by executing itself with the name it was started as, i.e.,
     /usr/sbin/sshd.

I assumed it would only reread its configuration file, and not execute
itself again.

Thanks!
