The state in lucid is really problematic. Afaik, the init.d scripts are supposed to provide wrappers for upstart in the transition period, and we are using them in a lot of old scripts to manage our fleet. Reloading ssh with "/etc/init.d/ssh reload" resulted in a weird state where upstart believes ssh is stopped, while it's still up but upstart has no way to control it until the service is stopped from the init.d script.

Additionally, doing a kill -1 on sshd leads to the same bug: upstart thinks sshd is stopped when it's really reloaded.

Is there a fix planned in -updates for lucid? What is planned for future releases?
