Right, that could be.

Ok.

At this point I probably need to be able to reproduce this locally to make
any further progress, or somebody needs to debug the upstart jobs
sufficiently on their side to show where things are getting stuck and why.
If someone has a simple recipe I could use to set up a saucy nfsroot for
testing, I can try to take a look; otherwise this will probably stall again.
