It occurred to me that glxinfo is from a package in universe and I was
able to recreate the crash using the following steps:
8:28:59 - flash:[~/Documents/subtitles] sudo chmod -x '/usr/bin/glxinfo'
[sudo] password for bdmurray:
8:29:10 - flash:[~/Documents/subtitles] ubuntu-bug xorg

The existence of glxinfo should be tested before trying to run it.
