I don't think that any workarounds could really fix this - the workarounds just modify timing or reduce impact. I think the problem is really much more lowlevel - device nodes that are not ready, or events emitted by upstart in wrong order or wrong timing. I don't want to be mean, but I'd suggest

I think the problem is that nobody really wants to take responsibility for that. I have another bug open which describes Xorg not starting because it cannot open the console (which is probably the same why cups does not start sometimes). I posted this bug against upstart, but it was rejected as pro

I can't remember where but I read clues about NetworkManager could be involved: Sometimes NM starts fast enough to initialize the "lo" net interface but this does not create an event in upstart. Sometimes the script that usually inits "lo" runs first and generates the event. Something else I see

Maybe for a similar reason the xorg-server sometimes does not start, logging a message in Xorg.0.log about a wait timeout on VT7 or something, as I reported in Bug #584187. (I will upload logs there later) -- cups not starting at boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554172 You received this bug
