Not that I can remember.
If I do remember correctly, what I did was copy the entry for
syslog-facility. Which is set as PGC_POSTMASTER. I don't know if there
is rationale behind that one, but I think that's where I got it from.
(same goes for syslog-ident).
I see no direct reason why you shouldn't be able to change it via at
SIGHUP.
