I solved my problem of scbs blowing up logcat by starting scbs as a service...

I created a shell script called scbs.sh and placed it in /bin

#!/bin/sh    
scbsargs=`cat /sdcard/scbsargs.conf`
if [ ! "$scbsargs" == "" ] ; then
    if [ ! -f /dev/scbs0 ] ; then
        dev=$(cat /sys/class/scbs/0/dev | sed -e "s/:/ /g")
        mknod /dev/scbs0 c $dev        
    fi
    scbs $scbsargs
fi

I created a file called scbsargs.conf and placed it in the root of my sdcard...

-d -co /sdcard/scbs.conf -lf /dev/null

And finally, edited /init.cfg/init.froyo.rc and added scbs.sh as a service...

service scbs /bin/scbs.sh
