This appears to be another init-script vs upstart confusion issue.  The
"status" case in /etc/init.d/kdump-tools leads one to believe that
"/usr/sbin/kdump-config status" will be run:

status)
$KDUMP_SCRIPT status
;;

This would have generated the expected output:

# /usr/sbin/kdump-config status
current state   : ready to kdump

Instead, the /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/01-upstart-lsb hook intercepts
the "status" option and translates it to:

"initctl status kdump-tools"

which returns a slightly less useful status which I have to assume
indicates that the kdump-tools startup is simply "waiting" for a
kdump event.

For purposes of test/setup validation, you can either check the syslog
messages for kdump startup failures, or run "/usr/sbin/kdump-config
status" instead of "service kdump-tools status".
