D'oh!  The environment variable which Zope checks for is STUPID_LOG_FILE:

 * If it is set to a blank string, Zope writes the verbose logging
   to stderr;

 * If it is a non-blank string, Zope opens it as a file and writes the
   verbose logging there;

 * Otherwise, Zope suppresses the verbose logging.

Ayup, there have been several threads reporting such restarts lately -- have you
been following them? (some were on the zope-dev list, I think).
