The default action for sighup is to reload the config.

I did issue systemctl reload magicka just to see what would happen and it
issued an error, I forget now what it was but it was minor. It must have
stopped and restarted magicka anyway since I had made changes to my
message area config and after that I could see them on the BBS.

So it seems good to me. It'll start magicka if it reboots for some reason
and I am not there to start it systemd will start it and also restart
magicka if a reload is issued for some reason.

I'm going to do the same for magichat but it's still running happily in
gdb so I'll leave it alone for now.

 Ttyl :-)
