I suspect that you are seeing a different message at LogLevel=DEBUG.

sshd logs "Connection refused by tcp wrapper" via debug.
libwrap logs "refused connect from [ip address]"

Anyway, I suspect it's libwrap that's being confused by the reexec not 
sshd itself.  What version of libwrap did you use?

For clarification: it's only the messages from libwrap that don't get 
logged, right?

     Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
