...but by that point we already have bootstrap options, so I suppose that we could initialize logging sooner.

...oh. doh. i think that you can basically do something like this:

although now that I'm looking at it again, I think the changes I remember making to LocalPantsRunner were removed in theprocess of getting that PR to pass CI
