Oh right and the trace command that Steve used will show a call to init
early on which passes in a state fd which then, a bit later, seems to be
used as command stream to a shell. A construct like that was the parent
of mounted-tmp runs I observed. So I assume this is the method to
execute upstart scripts... but anyway.

And oh #2 @Steve: to make things even more fun it seems that the "does
not reproduce" is not depending on the use of --write-state-file but on
the fact that you have to interrupt the boot and then directly boot into
the live mode instead of making that selection graphically...Even more
fun it seems... Oddly it seems that in those cases the execve for init
seems to use a different fd number than later calls of sh use for input.
But again might be just fluke...
