Compiz crashed in cairo_save() from unity::UnityWindow::RenderDecoration() from unity::UnityWindow::scalePaintDecoration() from ScaleWindow::scalePaintDecoration()

[Timo Jyrinki]

A crash happens when you eg. open two Firefox windows and then rapidly click on the launcher icon.

Running Compiz 0.9.8.4 + the Unity stack from ppa:unity-team/ppa. Crash file attached.

Looks like it is caused by:

There's a stack trace in comment #1 too.

Yeah, but is not enough complete... I don't see symbols there.
