I once had this problem and it took me a while to realize:

some_directory$ /var/zope/start -D
                    (long-running process)

in another shell:

other_dir$ rm -rf some_directory

Then, when restarting Zope if it had LocalFS, I rec'd an IOError as
it tried to use the now non-existing present working directory.

Might not be your problem, but worth checking. It was annoying difficult
for 20 minutes to decode.
