Hm. I can't reproduce any part of this (although, as always, 
verification would be easier if we did any logging at all!).

unity-system-compositor from 0.6 works fine (on image 181). For me, 
LightDM doesn't pass the --vt option to unity-system-compositor. The 
relevant change would be r1826 on lp:mir/devel, which now means that 
we'll reject unknown commandline options by default.
