Title:
  compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in
  unity::ui::EdgeBarrierController::Impl::OnPointerBarrierEvent()

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is what happened before the crash:
  1) I connected another monitor to my laptop's mini-DVI port (which was previously set to span, not mirror).
  2) Unity didn't recognise the monitor, so I opened up display settings.
  3) The monitor was recognised, but then everything got slow temporarily.
  4) In addition, the mouse cursor could move around the second monitor, but got "stuck" when it just entered the laptop's monitor.
  5) I lost all window decorations, and couldn't alt-tab, etc. I was notified of a crash.
  6) I had to switch to tty1 and run $ unity --replace . All was fine then.

  This crash does not happen all the time.
