This is most definitely NOT a regression of 430981.
/desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager is set
correctly both before and after the reboot.

After a reboot I can fix the problem (which manifests as missing key
bindings and also windows are missing the title bar and the menu
overlaps the panel at the top of the screen - weird).

I can temporarily "fix" the problem by setting "Visual Effects" to
"Normal" (they show as "None" after a reboot), but then after the next
reboot I have the same problem. If I set "Visual Effects" back to "None"
after fixing the problem windows display normally (without the compiz
enhancements), but the problem always returns after a reboot.

I have found that ~/.gconfd/saved_state gets rewritten with some line
diffs (I've attached a *.bad1 and *.good1 to show the file before and
after fixing the problem in Appearance Preferences), but across reboots
instead of a few line differences the entire file seems to be changed,
so maybe this is not part of the problem.

If anyone has some ideas for what to look for I would appreciate it.
Thanks.
