This bug consistently evades me. I've spent much time trying to reproduce this to no avail.

This fail will occur if mir client process are *not* launched via ubuntu-app-launch - as unity8 will not accept mir connections it doesn't expect, causing the client to crash with this error. The obvious possibility is a race where unity8 is informed of a client launch only after client tries to connect - but the logs don't indicate this.

There could be a bug somewhere in the stack causing a client to be launched twice, the first will be accepted, the second rejected and crashing. The logs do seem to indicate this possibility, but I cannot pinpoint where.

Logs from ubuntu-app-launch & upstart might help shed light.
Any suggestions on increasing the odds of reproducing this would be appreciated.
