Public bug reported:

This is fairly typical of instability problems I've been having for a
while, but I tried to isolate an example which I could document well.

To create the crash I simply selected 'Place Windows' which was
previously unselected within CCSM. Immediately, Compiz crashes and all
window decorations and interactions are lost.

I attach the output from the compiz --replace process (which I had
running on TTY1 with STDOUT and STDERR directed to the same file). There
had been previous crashes, so I relaunched compiz with the additional
logging redirects to create this file, like...

compiz --replace > /tmp/compiz.out 2>&1

On restarting Compiz it seems stable and functional again, but selecting
and deselecting plugins creates another crash. From experience with this
build, removing compiz config entirely and starting again returns
stability, so there may be a particular selected plugin which is
creating this issue, but I haven't isolated which.
