[logback-user] Compression in SiftingAppender

[ceki]

Hi TJ,

File name patterns with folder names depending on the date should
work. Please try reproducing on a simple example (without
SiftingAppender or CloseSTBFNATP). By the way,
%d{HHmmss'/maxhist-key/key.'HHmmss} is quite a complex date pattern. I
don't know if such date formats are supported by
SimpleDateFormat. (They might be).
