It looks like it was a permissions problem. All my files are owned by the buildbot user, and when I was testing I was running as my VM's standard "ubuntu" user. However, the ubuntu user belongs to the buildbot group, and since the perms are 770 I didn't think there'd be a problem, but when I changed perms to 777 then twistd suddenly started working. It's a little frustrating Twisted can't work with tighter permissions and/or report this error.
