Bug description:
Mir server platform command line options are unpredictable/non-
deterministic.
I keep thinking I'm imagining things. Sometimes --vt works and
sometimes it doesn't (from a Gnome Terminal). Well both are true. Now
I have two separate wily machines with the same packages. One fails
but the other works:
FAILING MACHINE:

It appears the unpredictability might be arising from which driver it
finds on the filesystem first.
