I can confirm this bug affecting Cairo-dock too on 2 systems
(arch,slackware - either with proprietary or free drivers).
versions 0.9.9 through 0.9.11-bzr

Please update the title accordingly to reflect that it affects Cairo-dock as well as AWN.

Cairo-dock seems to have a larger window than what is drawn, due to a big part of it being transparrent.
Since it is (correctly) treated as a dock by compiz, it is always above other windows.

Now, when the menu of another window is drawn, it is drawn correctly above the invisible part of the dock, but for some reason the shadows are drawn beneath it!!! That must be the reason of clipping occurrence.

What is strange, that even Cairo-dock's own menu appears to clipped (when in vertical mode it becomes very clearly visible).

Some screenshots of menus' shadow clippings:

Any help would be appreciated.
