In the case I outlined, the only way I could catch it happening was to shut down and then boot the system off of a Live USB installation, so I could mount the root filesystem and inspect it before NetworkManager was started up again (using the GRUB 'recovery console' and 'drop to a root shell' (without networking) still starts NetworkManager). Interestingly, it only happens one of my two systems, the one that has a 32-bit Kubuntu install on it; the other is a 64-bit install, but I doubt that's relevant, there's probably something else that is installed that allows NetworkManager to complete its shutdown process before the system stops allowing new process creation.
