I thought I'd be clever in getting around the max filehandles bug, by
using the same filename in the CustomLog for each of my VirtualHosts, so
that it would only use 1 filehandle for its main logging.  Unfortunately,
apache seems to use a separate handle for each directive, even though it's
the same file.  I need/want to log different information for each domain,
so I can't just use one directive in the main section.

Is this known/known and being fixed/known and being ignored, or has no one
else noticed this ?

TIA

I don't know if this is known per se.  I've run into similar problems
before.  But this is just how it works ... a solution is unlikely soon. 
You can always put your most common log file into the main server and
override it in specific vhosts.
