[Bug 806761] Re: Feature Request: Upstart scripts for nslcd

Another patch rev: after upgrading to Raring (nss-pam-ldapd 0.8.10), the
expect fork stanza no longer behaves correctly. Running script to
determine fork count (http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#how-to-
establish-fork-count) indicated 6 calls to fork or clone when nslcd
starts.

To address this issue, the latest patch rev runs nslcd in
debug/foreground mode (-d). This has the added benefit of logging debug
output to the nslcd job's log file, although it's a bit verbose for
normal operation.

** Patch added: "Patch Rev 10"
