I've discovered the glitch.  This seemingly good file name is actually
bad:

  /etc/init/hvc0.conf

Renaming this specific file to any of these names results in the desired
behavior:

  /etc/init/hvc1.conf
  /etc/init/hvc00.conf
  /etc/init/hvc01.conf
  /etc/init/bork0.conf
  /etc/init/bork00.conf
  /etc/init/xxx0.conf

I've been unable to find another file name that is similarly moved into
the /etc/event.disabled directory by upstart.

This behavior persists after upstart is recompiled, and it seems to
happen regardless of file contents.

Is there a reason why upstart does this?  -- Could be a failsafe to
ensure that a console tty is available?
