Well, I guess that the init script can be made not to fail if it is
running. And although I'm not upstart-literate, I understand that the
event launched by upstart can make the initscript to be called. Just
make sure that starting an already started daemon, or stopping an
already stopped daemon, does not result in failure, and I guess that
would be enough.
