Upstart only gained the ability to re-exec statefully in Raring. The man
page for telinit on Lucid explains that state is not preserved and also
warns that running this command is not recommended.

Note that upstart has to re-exec itself on Lucid if certain key packages
are upgraded to ensure a clean filesystem unmount. However, to minimise
issues, the re-exec only occurs at shutdown after all jobs have stopped.

In summary: do not run 'telinit u' manually as the man page warns.

** Changed in: upstart (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix
