Bug Description
First of all an Happy New Year:)
All upstart logfiles Dos/Windows line endings eg \r\n (^M) and not the normal unix end of line
I'v seen this on 3 different boxes in my home env.

steps to reproduce:
Open the logfiles with midnight-
I see the lines ends with a 0x0d 0x0a
when i open the log files in /var/log/upstart with mcedit i see the ^M at each end of line in the logs
i think the lines should end with a normal 0x0a (\n) as we are on a linux system
but maybe i'm wrong and this is the intended behavior of init(upstart)
I searched already for releated bugs here but maybe i missed something
