Public bug reported:

With vanilla Ubuntu 12.04 (including precise-proposed) we often see
instances get into a 'highlander' state.  They're in an 'error' state,
like so:

RESERVATION     r-n1d0t747      c519923c921a404c96ebc8210a4ec67a        
juju-canonistack2, juju-canonistack2-10
INSTANCE        i-000000bb      ami-000000bf    server-187      server-187      
error   None (c519923c921a404c96ebc8210a4ec67a, alce)   0               
m1.small        2012-07-02T02:12:56.000Z        nova                            
monitoring-disabled                                    instance-store

This is particularly problematic when combined with things like LP
#1092108.  There doesn't seem to be any reasonable way to kill the
instances (ec2-terminate-instances as either the owner or an admin
user has no effect).

(I realise there's not a lot of detail here; I'm happy to any more
 that's asked for, but the focus of the bug (from my POV) is the
 unkillable nature of these instances, not how/that they're in an
 error state.)
