Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

@John - do you have a crash file or a state file (/var/crash/_sbin_init.*.crash or /var/log/upstart/upstart.state)? If so, please can you attach them to this bug.

[John A. Lewis (pointful)]

Here is the crash file. (Got the upload working.) Do not have a state file.
