[Bug 912558] Re: log.c Assert failed - err=>number == EIO

[James Hunt]

@Kaulbach: Thank you for taking the time to transcribe the panic.

A full fix for this problem has already been written but requires new
test cases to be written too (it also requires the full test suite to be
run extensively).

Rest assured, we intend to put out an updated Upstart package as soon as
possible with logging re-enabled.
