hmmm. i'll have to think about how to do that from mon,
which wants to run a script every so often.
maybe add another layer ...

mon runs test_zeo.sh

test_zeo.sh writes to a named pipe which 
triggers a test_zeo.py which is running all the time and which 
has a connection to zeo.

test_zeo.py could be made to create the named pipe and open it for reading 
when it starts, and have an exit handler that cleans up the pipe.

something like that...

 
But anyway, it sounds like our current script is *not* the cause of the
zeo oddness, since other people are getting it...
