I ran into this on a machine upgraded from Karmic to Lucid. The problem was that the ifupdown package hadn't been upgraded (it was on 0.6.8nmu+1 IIRC) and the upstart init files for networking weren't in /etc/init (which meant that lo was never started and so rc-sysvinit was never started). Installing Lucid's ifupdown package fixed the problem.
