Agreed! I'd love to see this bug fixed so that "or" blocks until goal
completion or failure. I have not even considered trying to fix it as I
feel it would be premature given the planned massive refactoring to a
state aware system. Plus, fixing it will likely *break* a lot of things
that are depending on the "wrong" behavior, so this is the hack to get
things working until upstart has this solved internally.
I haven't spent much time on it, but it seems non-trivial as a fix to
me (possibly because I'm not in the code all that much).
