I like 'screen' -- start the troublesome process inside a screen
session, detach the terminal, re-attach it from elsewhere, etc. The
process sees it has a valid stdin/stdout/stderr, but all those are
abstracted away from the physical terminal, which can be disconnected
and reconnected at will. It's not a cure for everything, but if you
need to be able to watch the debugging output, it may beat a log file
in usability.

If that's not clear, check out a non-Zope example we've written up at
