Public bug reported:
I don't know if this is a bug or an intentional feature...
I upgraded a laptop from 12.04 to 13.10. When it was at 12.04, have a
few .override files in /etc/init that are actually symlinks to a file
named manual.override. This file has a single line entry for the
"manual" stanza. While it was in 12.04, this works. Now in 13.10 it
doesn't. I replace one of the symlinks with an actual file (e.g. cp
manual.override mysql.override) and the .override file was recognized by
upstart when I rebooted.
