Bypassing svscan

[Daniel L. Miller]

I'm trying to run some tools directly through upstart, instead of having 
multiple control processes.  I made an entry for dnscache:

# dnscache
#
# This task runs the dnscache server.

start on runlevel-1
start on runlevel-2
start on runlevel-3
start on runlevel-4
start on runlevel-5
start on runlevel-6

stop on shutdown

exec envdir /var/lib/dnscache/env envuidgid dnscache softlimit -o250 -d 
"$DATALIMIT" /usr/bin/dnscache
respawn
## EOF

This works just fine.  But I can't log anything.  I've tried building a 
script that includes logging:

# dnscache
#
# This task runs the dnscache server.

start on runlevel-1
start on runlevel-2
start on runlevel-3
start on runlevel-4
start on runlevel-5
start on runlevel-6

stop on shutdown

script
    exec 2>&1
    exec envdir /var/lib/dnscache/env \
        envuidgid dnscache softlimit -o250 -d "$DATALIMIT" 
/usr/bin/dnscache |  \
        setuidgid dnslog multilog t /var/log/djbdns/dnscache
end script
respawn

And while dnscache runs, and multilog starts - it seems the pipe never 
gets created because multilog simply opens the logfile without writing 
anything.  Output of "ps ax | grep 'dns'":

13593 ?        Ss     0:00 /bin/sh -e -c exec 2>&1?exec envdir 
/var/lib/dnscache/env envuidgid dnscache softlimit -o250 -d "$DATALIMIT" 
/usr/bin/dnscache | setuidgid dnslog multilog t 
/var/log/djbdns/dnscache? /bin/sh
13594 ?        S      0:00 /usr/bin/dnscache
13595 ?        S      0:00 multilog t /var/log/djbdns/dnscache

Since I have no shell knowledge, I'm probably missing something basic.  
Any ideas?
