Suddenly, all my kernels are failing to boot. These include ones from
Ubuntu 12.04 and my Linus' GIT kernels. Any suggestions for what
might be broken? Is it possible for me to fix this?

Those are error messages from Upstart, not the kernel. It seems to
have some kind of internal issue and exits. Since it's PID 1, it
panics the kernel because init can't exit.
You might want to see if you updated upstart or libnih recently and
downgrade if so.
