Hi, I don't know if you'ce solved this or not. I can confirm this bug as
I just experienced it. I was just playing around with compiz and
rebooted my computer. GNOMEs GL-settings are set to "normal
workspace"-switching appearance. I've found a workaround (see bottom of
this mesage).

My details:
>From 'lspci': 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 
>945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
My Ubuntu version: Ubuntu Feisty

$ dpkg -l|grep compiz

Gnome version: 2.18.1

My workaround is pretty simple. Just do:
1. Go into Main menu -> System -> Preferences -> GL Desktop.
2. Uncheck the box "Enable GL Desktop".
3. Check the box "Enable GL Desktop".

This workaround resets the number of workspaces I have as well as puts
all my open windows in one and the same workspace. but that is another
bug already reported.

If I experience this again I could try to set number of workspaces to 1
and then increase to my normal of four.
