I have never heard of this feature and couldn't find anything on the
manpage. Running these 2 commands gets me
$ svlogd -tt "$(realpath log)"/ mylog.0
svlogd: warning: unable to open log directory: mylog.0: file does not exist

and the current file is still called 'current'.
I have artix' linux runit 2.1.2-15 and svlogd version
5e55a90e0a1b35ec47fed3021453c50675ea1117.

What version are you running?
