This suggests that there is an extra multilog process holding on to
that directory.  Look at all your running multilogs, supervises, and
svscans and see if you can find the duplicates.  There should be only
one svscan, one supervise per /service/* + /service/*/log directory,
and one multilog per /service/*/log.  "pstree -p" may help.
