failure when starting with expect stop doesn't respawn, but logs it will

[Tom Most]

Consider this job (also attached):

  script
      sleep 10
      exit 1
  end script
  expect stop
  respawn

If started this will pause for 10 seconds, then print "started/running" state:

  $ sudo initctl start bug
  bug start/running

However, it is recorded as failed in syslog:

  Jan 17 19:20:26 localhost kernel: [276823.832916] init: bug main process (11410) terminated with status 1
  Jan 17 19:20:26 localhost kernel: [276823.832930] init: bug main process ended, respawning

But it isn't running, didn't actually respawn, and never does.
