I don't see how this analysis can be correct.  upstart receives no signal

finished, and if the unity8 process has died with a segfault there's no
process for upstart to kill anyway - so the kill timeout can't be related
here.

A syslog from the time of one of these failures, with 'initctl log-priority
info', may be enlightening.

The thing here is that the process segfaults on exit - after it receives SIGTERM from upstart, which then only waits $kill_timeout before SIGKILLing it, at which point apport is interrupted.
