Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

Steps to reproduce:
0 precondition: gconf key /apps/metacity/general/button_layout is not set and therefore loading system default values as in /usr/share/gconf/defaults/
1 open terminal, and run:
2 $gconftool-2 -u /apps/metacity/general/button_layout

expected behavior:
window decorator button layout stays unchanged, in my case, a la "close,minimize,maximize:"

actual behavior:
window manager changed the decorated titlebar a la /usr/share/gconf/schemas/metacity.schemas, i.e. "menu:minimize,maximize,close"

workaround:
run this:
$ compiz-decorator --replace &
