I think a backport to lucid is of questionable benefit, unfortunately, since
we would then also need to rebuild all of the affected packages that ship
upstart jobs and I don't think we have a committment to do that work. I'll
subscribe the ubuntu server team to this bug however, for their input - if
there's interest in doing the work to rebuild the affected server packages,
I'm ok with backporting this.
