In my case, as you suggested vbox:test01 was disabled before reboot (Jul 23
20:22:38). In the log I can see:
adumont$ tail /var/svc/log/site-xvm-vbox\:test01.log
[ Jul 23 20:13:55 Method "start" exited with status 0. ]
[ Jul 23 20:22:38 Stopping because service disabled. ]
[ Jul 23 20:22:38 Executing stop method
("/export/home/adumont/svc/method/vbox stop"). ]

[ Jul 27 22:07:55 Disabled. ]
adumont$ svccfg -s vbox:test01 listprop restarter/logfile
(nothing)
Now let's try to enable, and disable again the svc:
adumont$ svcadm -v enable -ts vbox:test01
svc:/site/xvm/vbox:test01 temporarily enabled.
adumont$ svcadm -v disable -ts vbox:test01
svc:/site/xvm/vbox:test01 temporarily disabled.
adumont$ svccfg -s vbox:test01 listprop restarter/logfile
restarter/logfile astring /var/svc/log/site-xvm-vbox:test01.log
adumont$ svcs -l vbox:test01
fmri svc:/site/xvm/vbox:test01
name Sun xVM Virtualbox
enabled false
state disabled
next_state none
state_time Thu Jul 30 00:29:28 2009
logfile /var/svc/log/site-xvm-vbox:test01.log
restarter svc:/system/svc/restarter:default
dependency require_all/none svc:/milestone/network:default (online)
dependency require_all/none svc:/system/filesystem/local:default (online)
dependency require_all/none svc:/milestone/multi-user-server (online)
So, based on this you seem to be right: after being enabled for the first
time since last reboot, the restarter/logfile property is populated and svcs
shows it again.
