(Get the code!)
Alan,
Due to a small oversight, the fix for bug 1189770 is missing a fix for the signal/crash case. So I logged that as a new bug 1320114 and Alexandros is making progress toward resolving it in:
lp:~afrantzis/mir/emergency-cleanup
So fatal signals such as SIGABRT raised by mir::abort() do still go through our emergency cleanup code. We just accidentally forgot to include VT/DRM recovery in that code path. But alf is working toward fixing that(?).
Thus when all the fixes are in place Mir will both recover the screen *and* dump clean core files. However they're not strictly dependent activities, and I'd rather keep proposals separate and smaller where possible.
