Bug Description
Traditionally, running "compiz" with no parameters should fail and exit gracefully if a window manager is already running.
It does that, but also somehow causes the existing instance of compiz to shut down when this happens.

Partially bisected:
r3099 = working
r3110 = broken
So it looks like a regression introduced to lp:compiz-core after we branched for 0.9.8.
