Looking at the upstart user job log files we see:

 $ cat ~/.cache/upstart/update-notifier-crash-_var_crash__usr_lib_firefox_firefox.1000.crash.log
Tue Sep 24 09:52:46 PDT 2013 crash report /var/crash/_usr_lib_firefox_firefox.1000.crash detected

 $ cat update-notifier-crash-_var_crash__usr_bin_xeyes.1000.crash.log
Tue Sep 24 09:52:46 PDT 2013 crash report /var/crash/_usr_bin_xeyes.1000.crash detected
ubuntuone-syncdaemon

Most of the other crash.log files look the same except for ubuntuone-syncdaemon.

 $ zcat update-notifier-crash-_var_crash__usr_lib_ubuntuone-client_ubuntuone-syncdaemon.1000.crash.log.1.gz
Tue Sep 24 09:48:04 PDT 2013 crash report /var/crash/_usr_lib_ubuntuone-client_ubuntuone-syncdaemon.1000.crash detected

One is from before the reboot after the kernel oops and the other is after it.

The contents of the linux crash log file are also interesting:

 $ cat update-notifier-crash-_var_crash_linux-image-3.9.0-030900-generic.229283.crash.log
Tue Sep 24 09:52:46 PDT 2013 crash report /var/crash/linux-image-3.9.0-030900-generic.229283.crash detected
ubuntuone-syncdaemon

so the linux*.crash file was detected but it remains unmodified for some reason.
