Details

If you change the DPI preference on linux, then callbacks will fire on deleted
device contexts, which will cause a crash.

I have a fix, and erik van der poel has reviewed it.

The problem was that I was registering for a pref callback, but never
unregistering when the device context went away.
fix has been checked in.

I'm not exactly sure on how to do verify this on linux, Alec could you please 
mark this as verified ?
I probably shouldn't, but I will. Basically you open some windows, close them,
then change your resolution in the Debug preferences pane.
