Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Using a display scaling factor of > 1.0 the 'large text' setting is
  sometimes enabled automatically on session start, doubling the scaling
  factor.

  [ Test Case ]

  (1) Using the System Settings > Displays > Scale for menu and title bars slider, set the scaling to a value > 1 (for example, 1.88).
  (2) Log out and in several times.

  Since this problem occurs as a result of a race condition somewhere,
  it is not reliably reproducable.

  [ Regression Potential ]

  Any code change to the Unity desktop shell could introduce a new crash
  or lockup.

  [ Other Info ]

  The Unity SRU fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry-picked from Ubuntu
  14.10 where it has been in production use for some time without
  demonstrating regression.
