It's not compiz. It's the nvidia-driver that is messing up. It just
shows because of compiz actually uses lots of those functions.

Please read all the comments above about the cause.

In other words:
  - the closed-sourced driver is to blame (this is where the bugs are)
  - the closed-sourced driver is not installed by default
  - there will likely be a xserver patch that solves the major problems (by 
using a workaround)

More specically .. there are two unrelated issues:
  issue 1:  nvidia does not support more than one xserver session per gpu (this 
makes switching users break)
  issue 2:  nvidia's driver and our xserver abi's are out of sync 

Issue 2 is not related to compiz. It will likely be solved by a
workaround in the xserver (note that it requires no change in compiz).
These sort of issues are common with closed-source drivers.

Issue 1 is not related to compiz, but related to nvidia's lack to
support (or care about) running more than one xserver on your computer.
These sort of issues are common with closed-source drivers. We can't fit
it and they don't care. They said: "that's not a supported
configuration"

In other words: this does not concerns bugs in Compiz
