Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start app (e.g. calculator)
2. From phablet-shell run 'stop unity8'

Expected result: unity8 shuts down properly
Actual result: unity8 often (but not always) crashes with a SEGV

I have attached thread backtraces of two crash instances. Note that the SEGV site is different in those traces, which indicates that this a race (also reinforced by the fact that the crash doesn't happen always). In both cases the SEGV occurs in "Thread 1".

Setting to high as this may affect our tests.

This occurs on Mako with r161 (haven't tried on other devices).

This will most probably be qtmir and not unity8 itself crashing.
