[Bug 924301] [NEW] normal exit TERM is not working every time

[Sworddragon]

Public bug reported:

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 dev with upstart 1.4-0ubuntu4. I have written a
script which uses the respawn stanza and TERM as a normal exit. But on
some commands the process will respawn and on other commands not (like
expected) if I use a SIGTERM on the process. Here are 2 examples:

normal exit 0 KILL TERM
respawn
respawn limit 2 60
exec sleep 60

A SIGTERM on the "sleep 60" process will not cause it to respawn.

normal exit 0 KILL TERM
respawn
respawn limit 2 60
exec java -jar /usr/local/bin/minecraft_server.jar nogui

A SIGTERM on the java process will cause it to respawn. I don't know why
it is respawning. It is the only process that is created and a SIGTERM
shouldn't cause it to respawn.
