[Bug 1280936] [NEW] /etc/default/libvirt-bin does not affect libvirt's upstart job

Public bug reported:

In the upstart job it says:

# /etc/default/libvirt-bin will be deprecated soon.
# If you used to set $libvirtd_opts in /etc/default/libvirt-bin,
# change the 'exec' line here instead.
script
        [ -r /etc/default/libvirt-bin ] && . /etc/default/libvirt-bin
        exec /usr/sbin/libvirtd $libvirtd_opts
end script


But, this as it stands doesn't work - I changed /e/default/libvirt-bin to add -l to the libvirtd daemon flags, and it had no effect, when I altered the libvirt-bin.conf upstart job and did the same to the env line near the top it worked.

The bug is the claim that the old, simple, unconflated style is
deprecated: its broken. I think it would be better to either keep
supporting it (please!) or not claim that its deprecated when (at least
AFAICT) its broken.
