I'm suspecting the problem being in fglrx for the following reasons:
- It only happens for fglrx systems
- Compiz doesn't differentiate between small windows and big windows - the Pixmap allocated is the same, just bigger in size. And both the Pixmap and the corresponding texture are X and OpenGL structures, not anything that compiz can do 'wrong'

I was a bit busy with other things, but in some moments I'll get back to this one. It might also work with gnome-shell and others because of how particularly compiz handles communication with the X server. Gnome might doing it differently, therefore not showing the buggy behavior.
Besides, the gnome-shell decorators might be working completely differently than the ones supported by libdecoration - I don't know, since I know nothing about its code. Emerald should also be affected to be fair.

Even if this is a bug in fglrx, it doesn't mean it cannot be fixed/worked-around in compiz. Just saying that currently it might not work because fglrx isn't 'doing things as it should'.
Thanks for all the additional info guys!
