I am also encountering this bug on Ubuntu 11.10 (oneiric). Originally I
thought that it was some bug when updating packages but based on other
comments here it is apparently random behavior. The system is rarely
rebooted but the problem has been observed in perhaps 40% of the reboot
cycles since the system was installed in late November.

Bug description:
Trying to restart the computer from within a unity session causes the
session to log out, instead of actually restarting the computer.
1. Boot up oneiric
2. Log in
3. Click on the Power button obscured by a tiny gear on the top and far right
of the screen
4. Click "Shutdown..."
5. When asked, "Are you sure you want to close all programs and shut down the
computer?", select "Restart" (it's on the bottom left of the dialog)
Instead of restarting, you will be logged out.
