The problem is knowing the name that the logfile has just been rotated
to. The script is only passed the name of the logfile itself and I
don't think the name can be accurately constructed from that.

That's why I said some combination of pre- and post- rotate.  Something
like in the prerotate section change the ownership and permissions,
then when it's rotated it should be correct.  The create command can
then be used to make sure the newly created logfile has the correct
ownership/permission.
