I agree with Travis that having some gdb data would help pinpoint where the failure is occurring.

Aside from that, there's a hypothesis that the recent mesa upgrade caused this issue. That can be tested by downgrading to the earlier version of mesa (7.5) and verifying that the issue goes away. You may still have the old mesa deps in your /var/cache/apt/archives/ ; if not, they can also be obtained from https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-retro .

If it can be confirmed that the issue goes away when downgrading to mesa 7.5, then the next steps would be to move the bug report from compiz to mesa, and I will send it upstream to get priority attention.
