Forwarded the bug to compiz bugzilla:

http://bugs.opencompositing.org/show_bug.cgi?id=981

great, thanks for sent it upstream.

Thanks for your bugreport.

what version of ubuntu and compiz do you use? This should be fixed in the curret intrepid packages. Its caused by the new metacity.

I use Ubuntu 8.04 hardy with Compiz 0.7.6 backported via ppa repository.

Is this still an issue for you?

Not sure if it would be the same issue or not, but the Nvidia upgrade from 173 to 180 fixed a few gtk-window-decorator display problems for me.

This bug report is being closed due to your last comment regarding this being fixed with an update. For future reference you can manage the status of your own bugs by clicking on the current status in the yellow line and then choosing a new status in the revealed drop down box. You can learn more about bug statuses at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Status . Thank you again for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please submit any future bugs you may find.

I can say that this bug is not yet fixed as metacity is not shown correctly with compiz on. See the screenshots I attach for more info.

I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and New Wave 0.8.1 (under development now)

Note how on the first screenshot the bottom lines of the titlebar are missing and the modal dialog in the fron has the same style as other dialogs but it should be darker.
