I can't "break the system" but using the same test case does now
reliably crash the Mir server. See bug 1473869

Title:
  Using installed mir it is easy to break the system

Status in Mir:
  Incomplete
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Don't try this if you're not happy to reboot afterwards:

  $ sudo mir_demo_server --vt 2 --test-timeout 1 --test-client
  mir_demo_client_basic

  I find this leaves a zombie server that is trying to exit  and that VT
  switching is impossible (even after killing the server).

  What is "interesting" is that running a locally built version:

  $ sudo bin/mir_demo_server --vt 2 --test-timeout 1 --test-client
  bin/mir_demo_client_basic

  works fine.

  I've checked this with both 0.12.1 and 0.13.0 - both have the same
  undesirable behaviour when installed.
