ok, sam, it's more to have some input from you, maybe not a compiz bug.

So, gnome-session starts compiz and then gnome-panel when log in.

at some point, compiz crash (yeah, it happens, can't believe it, isn't it? ;)), gnome-panel is still running.
But nothing appears on screen.

Even DISPLAY=:0 metacity doesn't display again gnome-panel (which is
running in ps aux | grep gnome-panel)

We can reproduce it quite reliably. Do you think it's because compiz can
crash just when it's reparenting gnome-panel and so, then, the X window
is lost?
