I had the same situation. I finish by rebooting to solve the 1st update lockout on the first occurrence. On the second, I just change conveniently the upstart script by the genuine one and the return code was OK for the update to complete.
In order to find a clean upstart-based solution, I try to switch to "expect daemon" in /etc/init/dovecot.conf to insure upstart being capable of tracking dovecot process, but I've got the same hangup problem.
Question is, is upstart capable of tracking program launched in a unprivileged way by the daemon ?
The only similar reference I'm thinking of is http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=582745 .
