Windows from other workspaces missing decorations in window spread

[Jay Ó Broin]

When using the Super+W window spread, windows from other workspaces lack decorations.

TEST CASE:

1. Move a window to another workspace
2. Move back to the workspace you were on
3. Open another window
4. Press super<w>

Both windows should have decorations

<smspillaz> I fixed it in lp:compiz-core

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Thank you for your bug report, the issue has been fixed in the upstream vcs and the fix should land in a stable update later for Oneiric

This patch fixes a case where a transformed widnow that isn't on a transformed screen gets its decorations clipped
