The "checklogin.sh" script on this page: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/ACPI_Wakeup 
uses "who -q" to determine if a user is logged in to prevent MythTV from 
shutting down the computer when a user is using the computer.
On 11.04 this worked fine.
On 11.10, my system shuts down 10 minutes after booting unless I open a 
terminal window.
On opening a terminal window and running "who -q" I get:
$ who -q
dpeale
# users=1
I used to get "users=2". The gui user is not counted anymore.
This is true of both Unity and Gnome GUIs

The 'w' command also has the same bug (I've never been able to figure
out what package that comes from). It also has another bug. If you use
one of the ctl-alt-Fx screens, login, and then logout, it continues to
count that screen as logged in.
