Bug Description
I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 dev with upstart 1.9-0ubuntu2. I have noticed that the last few upgrades from Upstart are creating the process "/bin/sh -e /proc/self/fd/9" with the child process "/sbin/sulogin". These processes doesn't disappear until the system is rebooted. Trying to manually close these processes will result in an immediate reboot.

@Sworddragon - Thanks for reporting. Is this on a single system? Do you just have a single instance of the /proc/self/fd/9 process?
Please can you run 'apport-collect 1197789' on an affected system and follow the prompts to help debug this.
