I noticed that the rollOver() method in RollingAppender class does not check for
the return value of  file.renameTo(target). Java doc for File.rename says that
the caller should always check the value to see if the operation was a
success.We noticed that rename method returns 'false' when appender tries to
write to a locked file.
