Ah, I had no idea that was the issue.  Maybe a quick reference
table in the docs would be helpful:

Option             SET option      Reloads on SIGHUP
=====================================================
shared_buffers         no                 no
log_connections        no                 yes
log_statement          yes                yes
...

Maybe it's already in there somewhere, I dunno.
