No, it doesn't mean either of those things; it only means that the
currently-available version of upstart is 1.12.1-0ubuntu1. But that is not
the version you would have been running *during* the upgrade, so that is not
the version that segfaulted.

You said you ran into this "during the upgrade to 10.04", but that's clearly
not the release you were upgrading to if you now have the upstart from
14.04 in your apt list. You will need to provide more information about
what version of Ubuntu you were upgrading *from* when this happened. You
probably should also be filing a separate bug report, since this bug is
about a crash only in a 14.04 pre-release version of init: while you may
have experienced a crash of init when upgrading from a previous Ubuntu
release, it would almost certainly not be *this* bug.
