Bug Description

upstart 1.5-0ubuntu7

When this works as expected:

    expect [fork|daemon]
    exec ...

transforming it into the following breaks it; Upstart then fails to find the correct process/PID:

    expect [fork|daemon]
    script
        exec ...
    end script

There are plenty of upstart jobs as part of the default system that use this form (e.g., /etc/init/rsyslog.conf) without the problem you describe. Please provide a complete reproducer case for the issue you're seeing.
