The Foolscap distribution includes a utility named "``flogtool``" that is
used to get access to many Foolscap logging features. However, using this
command directly on Tahoe log files may fail, due to use of an incorrect
PYTHONPATH. Installing Foolscap v0.6.1 or later and then running
``bin/tahoe @flogtool`` from the root of a Tahoe-LAFS source distribution
may avoid this problem (but only on Unix, not Windows).
