Well I'll be damned, that's what changed.
When I ran qmail from before, /usr/local/bin/multilog was in the path. But
on reboot, I forgot to add /usr/local/bin/ to the default system path. it
threw no error that it couldn't find multilog, it just sat there when I ran
supervise /service/qmail from the shell-prompt. Now that I look, though,
multilog wasn't running before.
Good eye, I missed that.
Thanks so much! :)

Try killing everything off and running:
supervise /service/qmail &
interactively, as root. Look for an error message. I suspect
qmail-start can't find multilog.
