Probably worth mentioning, just recently seen & described here

which was duplicated (so, don't be fooled that this was fixed, we're considering this an active bug)

Some summary from IRC
 its an issue because unity8 is exited for our AP testing
go "while true; do restart unity8; done" you should hit the issue after a few times * see note
obvious issue for debugging is that it's running under upstart, you might want to run it under gdb, so `stop unity8`, export MIR_ things (you can check which in initctl get-env --global | grep MIR), and then loop it under gdb
SIGILL on startup is expected, so you might go "gdb -ex run -ex continue unity8"

* note: some discussion about just starting/stopping unity8 might not reproduce it. Since you need an app to be running to invoke screenshots - but saviq thinks he saw it just looping unity8 too.
