Right, things have moved on.  With the latest updates I am no longer getting the unity-support-test crash, so presumably something has been fixed there.  I still don't get the launcher or panel in Unity, just the wallpaper as before.  I still can't see anything interesting in any of the logs.  However, I don't know whether it is significant, but when I open a terminal and run
compiz --replace
It restarts compiz and shows the wallpaper as before.  I have attached the terminal output, the significant line may be 
compiz (core) - Error: Plugin 'opengl' not loaded.

Title:
  Unity fails to load on old hardware on Saucy

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On logging in I see just the wallpaper with no top panel and no launcher.
  Note that this is not bug #1066764 (Unity fails to load on old hardware (compiz enabling LLVMpipe has no effect and Mesa tries to use hardware still)) as compiz is at 1:0.9.9~daily13.04.18.1~13.04-0ubuntu4 and the errors for that bug are not seen in .xsessionerrors.

  .xsessionerrors only contains
  Script for cjkv started at run_im.
  Script for default started at run_im.

  The graphics is an intel 865 chipset.
