Hello! I have the same problem with my xfce4 (4.6.2/4.6.4) running on FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE with nvidia driver 256.53. However for my the whole top of the window is black so no control buttons are visible (they work but everything is black).

The problem is caused probably by xorg/nvidia when two monitors are detected by xorg and used together. When second monitor is turned off (at boot time and xorg start) the window decorations are okay, but when both monitors are turned on and detected, then only second monitor has proper decorations and decorations on the first monitor are black. I don't have xinerama running so two monitors are independent and have two separate xfce panels menus etc.

Hope this helps to track down the problem :-)

Best regards,
Tomek Cedro
