 When opening a .qgs project which points to one or more layers which files
 are missing from disk, QGIS does not display anything in the Legend and
 mapcanvas. If you answer OK to locate the files, and then navigate to the
 new disk location of those files, the QGIS interface is still totally
 empty: empty legend and empty canvas, nothing at all!
 If you cancel the locate file prompt, it is the same, nothing at all is
 displayed on the Legend and mapcanvas.
 Go to project properties, selectable layers tab: all layers are listed
 there. The canvas scale is correct and the coordinates in the status bar
 are also correct when the mouse moves over the canvas, but, again,
 absolutely nothing is displayed.
