Thanks for sending in the patch!  I like the idea; I've had a requests for
similar "do X post-rotate" functionality so there is some kind of general need
here.   A few comments:

a) What's the purpose of the double-forking and thread support? 
apr_proc_create() will fork/exec internally, so why fork (/spawn thread) then
call apr_proc_create()?

b) Isn't the apr_tokenize_to_argv() usage going to split up any paths with
spaces in?  it should be simple enough to set up argv[] correctly without
needing to flatten and reparse the string anyway.

c) probably should set the cmdtype to APR_PROGRAM_ENV to pass through any env
vars
