Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: upstart

init doesn't provide any warning if a config file in /etc/init fails to
parse correctly.  It just silently ignores the job.  This can create
difficult to debug problems, particularly if you accidentally break
something early in the boot process.  E.g., if you edit /etc/init/rc-
sysconfig.conf and introduce a parse error, at next bootup your system
will just hang with no indication as to what's going on.

A warning during bootup about an unparsable config would be very
helpful.
