I always was starting Zope with the -D flag, so I was always collecting
stdout from the server.  To see if it might be enlightening to someone
else, here is the information I see in stdout from running the standard
start script which in turn runs "/usr/freeware/bin/python2 z2.py -D"

I get the first "Open database for mounting...pcgi.soc" block when the
server initially starts.  When I click on the "Zope Management
Interface" link I get the two repeated blocks and the program dumps
core.  Here is the var/Z2.log from the transaction:

As you can see there is no warning or error message.  I would wonder
about the SGI python2 installation, but as I said in my original post, I
get exactly the same behavior from the install on Linux box running
RedHat 6.2.

Still perplexed,
