Alas, 3.9.0-saucy also fails. I followed the same steps as before, and got the same error in syslog.
For completeness, I also installed the 3.8.0-20 kernel you posted that reverts commit 68d9298 (http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1173423/). This one works! Adding the NVRAM variable succeeded.
It appears, then, this newer commit (31ff2f2) that tries to be a bit smarter about determining free space still isn't quite smart enough ;)
