The only relevant difference is that somehow, resolvconf failed to start for
you at boot. Can you reproduce this on subsequent reboots? If so, please
install version 1.4-0ubuntu7 of upstart from precise and attach the
resulting /var/log/upstart/resolvconf.log file, so we can get the failure
messages.
