(Get the code!)
If the 'killing all remaining processes' step has failed, then you have some processes on your system, not managed by upstart, that are either deadlocked or are respawning and preventing themselves from being killed. In either case, upstart does the best it can to shut down anyway, but when processes are misbehaving and trying to avoid shutting down, this sometimes means an unclean filesystem.
