I thought I'd explain this.

This line is used when our bash script sees that Canonistack broke in
some way out of our control (specifically, euca-describe-instances shows
an instance in an "error" or "stopped" state after the test run, when we
should have two running instances).

When Jenkins sees this line, we have configured it to automatically
retry (see the "Retry build after failure" post-build action, including
the "Advanced" setting).  It did.  These automatically started builds
are recorded as "Started by Naginator."  In this case, the retried build
succeeded!

It's not ideal, because we get error messages, but at least it is automatic.
