comm.c: line ~1556

RETSIGTYPE unrestrict_game(int sig)
{
  extern struct ban_list_element *ban_list;
  extern int num_invalid;

  mudlog("Received SIGUSR2 - completely unrestricting game (emergent)",
         BRF, LVL_IMMORT, TRUE);
  ban_list = NULL;
  restrict = 0;
  num_invalid = 0;
}

So:
kill -12 <circle_pid>

(Or try 'kill -l' if you have different signal numbers, that's Linux
above.)
