Public bug reported:
We have a few machines running Ubuntu 14.04, fully patched. Reboots
usually get scheduled for the weekend after a kernel update. After this
weekend's reboot, most of the machines didn't come up again. We
determined that upstart gets hung during the boot sequence.
We tried to re-install 14.04 on one of the affected machines and managed
to boot it after the install, but the machine was in no usable state
because again, upstart was hung, this time apparently after the boot
process. The process list was filling up with zombies that didn't get
reaped, and programs got stuck when trying to connect to the upstart
socket.
** Affects: upstart (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
