In looking at this closer, I believe this is a bug in the debian-start
script.
Because pipes mask errors in the left-most commands (only the last
command in pipes have errors detected), we're not detecting the problem
with the mysql upgrade process, leading to the error you see in comment
#10.
Deeper inspection reveals that the way the debian-sys-maint user is
created is really probably the issue.
Marking as Confirmed, importance Medium. This only seems to affect a few
users, but probably makes things fairly frustrating for those users.
