nginx-error.log hardcoded?

[Edho P Arief]

I noticed despite having set error_log /path/to/error.log, whenever I
signal my nginx process either with "nginx -c /path/to/nginx.conf -s
reload" or "kill -HUP <pid_of_nginx_master>", it writes log to error
log file defined at compile time (in my system - freebsd - it's at
/var/log/nginx-error.log).

Is it not possible to change the path used?
