I could find where the log messages were going, so I disabled syslog
logging in the source and rebuilt sm-notify.

apt-get source nfs-utils

The find the following lines in utils/statd/sm-notify.c and comment them
out:

        log_syslog = 1;
        openlog("sm-notify", LOG_PID, LOG_DAEMON);


Then rebuild with dpkg-buildpackage -B (or whatever) and install the resulting 
nfs-common deb file.


For good measure, I also edited /etc/init/statd.conf to redirect the output of 
sm-notify to a spare tty (/dev/tty12 in my case)
