Public bug reported:

This seems sporadic failure at best.  I had seen it on openstack fail similarly.
Today I launched 7 instances of us-east-1 t1.micro from each of :
 ami-be70f5d7 ebs/ubuntu-raring-daily-amd64-server-20121109
 ami-de27a2b7 ebs/ubuntu-raring-daily-amd64-server-20121110
 ami-f6c94d9f ebs/ubuntu-raring-daily-amd64-server-20121111
 ami-cc8307a5 ebs/ubuntu-raring-daily-amd64-server-20121112
 ami-5c43c735 ebs/ubuntu-raring-daily-amd64-server-20121113
and then another one of 20121109 and 20121113.

One of the 2 20121109 failed to boot, and I will attach its console log
and cloud-init.log.  The log was obtained from stopping the instance,
attaching to another system, and getting it.  Then I restarted the
instance, and it booted fine.

Things that were of interest:
 * from cloud-init's perspective, the thing that failed was finding the ec2 metadata service.
 * In the failure case, there were no messages to the console log after initramfs, while cloud-init's log shows it WARNing, which should go to console.
