Comment:

 This is a feature, not a bug.

 Tor writes its initial log messages to stdout, while caching a copy of
 them.
 It then parses its config, and flushes the cache to the configured log.

 Writing the initial output to stdout is a feature, in case tor crashes on
 startup.
 We can't wait until we've parsed the config to write log messages.

 Please start your tor as:
 `tor > /dev/null`
 to achieve the results you want.
