No this is NOT fixed and still reproducible after a freshly upgraded natty:

1. Open ccsm
2. Click "Settings" in the bottom left
-> This will now freeze your desktop session and breaks Unity persistently
3. Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to kill the X-Server
4. re-login: unity is now broken
5. run unity --replace -> will result in AttributeError

The problem is the following file:
~/.config/compiz-1/compizconfig/config

This must be empty, then unity --replace will work again. To do so run the following command (This may freeze your desktop session again, but brings unity back to life after logging in again):
echo -n '' > ~/.config/compiz-1/compizconfig/config
