Enabling reflection plugin results in random freezes (about 2-3 per
hour)

I have a Lenovo Thinkpad X61 with Intel GM965 graphics adapter. I have
migrated my home from another Lenovo (T60) with fglrx adapter, and the
dot compiz directory had the issue.

After two days of looking for the cause of the random freezes,
reproduced both in 32 & 64 bits Ubuntu, with and without wireless
drivers as pointed out by some people, the main cause looks like related
ONLY with this compiz plugin.

Disabling this plugin solves the problem

Steps to reproduce:
1. Be sure your driver adapter is GM965 (fglrx worked fine)
2. apt-get install compiz-fusion-plugins-extra ccsm
3. ccsm
4. Enable reflection plugin (no special options)
5. Work as usual... after a while the system should crash (sometimes in less than 5 seconds)

** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu)
     Importance: High
         Status: Confirmed
