Ok, so I think it is something rather odd on my system. Rebooting
produces a similar result, but I do get and X crash (possibly in the
nvidia driver) and a unity crash on logging in. both recover and let me
continue, but I think it is dropping me down to a partial unity-2d
interface.

I have just disabled acpi with acpi=off on my grub options to work around 
another issue where my cpu was stuck at 800mhz scaling. This time, I no longer 
got crashes on login, and myunity now sees me as not being 2d.
ps also no longer shows any unity-2d processes.
