      The upstart configuration placed by the mongodb-unstable package (and I would presume the others) calls start-stop-daemon without "exec." This leads to a situation where mongod's PID is not the one reported by "status mongodb" but the PID of the shell that ran start-stop-daemon.

      Changing from

      start-stop-daemon ...

      to

      exec start-stop-daemon ...

      fixes the problem.
