It should.  This was lost when I changed the zLOG --> logging mapping, and was 
unintentional.  I've changed the default logging formats for each handler 
type to do what seems to be the right thing.  The specific formats can be 
controlled via the "format" setting in the relevant log handler sections in 
zope.conf.

I'm not sure what the right approach to fixing this is.  There are a couple of 
choices:

- In debug mode, add a new handler that dumps to standard output.  This is
  fairly easy to code, but is inflexible.

- In debug mode, use an alternate or auxillary logging configuration to
  replace or augment the <eventlog> configuration section.  This is more work
  up front, but keeps everything flexible.
