Bug description:
Binary package hint: upstart

After a large upgrade, having been away from home for a few weeks, I rebooted.  Two of my filesystems (/ and /home) were due for an automatic fsck based on elapsed time (180 days).  usplash timed out and progress was displayed on the console.  Both checks completed without problems, but after the fsck of /home completed, there was no further output on the console, and X didn't come up.  After waiting a few minutes, sysrq+t revealed a 'sleep' process running.  I checked various consoles, none of which had output except the one where the fscks had run (I forget which it was).

I gave up and pressed control+alt+delete, which resulted in a couple of messages from upstart about rc scripts exiting with signal 15, and then (surprisingly) X started, and the system did not reboot.  I rebooted it by hand, and the next boot was OK.
