HTTP_HOST errors in Apache log during log rotation

Guys

Trickier one this time...

I rotate my Apache Logs nightly and this causes the Apache2 server to send some test requests to itself.

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - - [07/Mar/2008:xx:09:24 +1300] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 200 2382 "-" "Apache/2.2.4 (Linux/SUSE) (internal dummy connection)"
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - - [07/Mar/2008:xx:09:24 +1300] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 200 2382 "-" "Apache/2.2.4 (Linux/SUSE) (internal dummy connection)"
...

But when this happens I get the following in the Apache error_log

[Fri Mar 07 xx:09:24 2008] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_HOST in xxx/sapphire/core/control/Director.php on line 482
[Fri Mar 07 xx:09:24 2008] [error] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_HOST in xxx/sapphire/core/control/Director.php on line 487
...

When I installed this instance of SS I removed the Dev server entries 127.0.0.1 and localhost as suggested when running a live site so my _config.php has the following entry.

// Sites running on the following servers will be
// run in development mode. See
// http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=devmode
// for a description of what dev mode does.
Director::set_dev_servers(array(
'',
));

Is this a bug or do I have some other configuration wrong?
