[Bug 342851] [NEW] compiz causes synaptic to crash when calling synaptic from the panel

[mercutio22]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

The system crashes without apparent reason when synaptic or update
manager is called from the gnome-panel for the first time, after
inserting the super user password when compiz is the window manager.
CRTL+ALT+BACKSPACE is useless. Changing tty as well. The only way out is
a hard reboot.

This cannot be replicated when metacity is the window manager.

Xorg.0.log reveals an "AUDIT" error:
