** Summary changed:

- unity-system-compositor crashed with SIGSEGV in get_adjusted_ptr(), when 
proprietary Nvidia drivers are installed
+ Mir crashes with useless backtrace when mg::Platform methods throw

** Description changed:

- unity-system-co[5574]: segfault at 7f8056ee2490 ip 00007f805c592c3b sp
- 00007fffd6b871a0 error 4 in libstdc++.so.6.0.21[7f805c506000+172000]
+ So, the problem that causes unity-system-compositor to crash (rather
+ than fail to start with a helpful error message) is that when methods on
+ mg::Platform throw we unload the platform DSO before exception
+ processing is completed, so libstdc++ goes merrily along trying to
+ execute code that is longer mapped.
+ 
+ Original report below:
+ unity-system-co[5574]: segfault at 7f8056ee2490 ip 00007f805c592c3b sp
