Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
I found a critical bug in compiz, the x-window-manager.
Ubuntu version : 12.04.4 LTS
compiz version : 1:0.9.7.12-0ubuntu3
The test case is as below.
1) Set the window placement option to cascade mode.
- run "gnome-terminal" and then type "sudo gconftool-2 --type int --set
/apps/compiz-1/plugins/place/screen0/options/mode 0"
OR
- run "gconf-editor"(At first, install "gconf-editor" from software center)
and then go through " /apps/compiz-1/plugins/place/screen0/options/" and the
set "mode"value to 0
2) Run "gnome-terminal" and then repeat opening new windows about 30
times.(using shortcut key <Ctrl+Alt+T>)
(OR run "nautilus" file manager and then repeat opening new windows about 30
times (using shortcut key <Ctrl+N>))
It is Note for you: Although you reproduce this bug, your Ubuntu will not
break. System restore is very simple. Please try log out and log in again. And
then try resetting as following.
run "gnome-terminal" and then type "sudo gconftool-2 --type int --set
/apps/compiz-1/plugins/place/screen0/options/mode 2"
(OR - run "gconf-editor"(At first, install "gconf-editor" from software
center) and then go through " /apps/compiz-1/plugins/place/screen0/options/"
and the set "mode"value to 2)
