It isn't compiz. Compiz is the compositing window manager that puts all the 
windows on the screen. Each gnome application will create one or more GTK 
windows and by default the resizeable property is set to true, 
gnome-control-center sets it's resizeable property to false because it sizes 
itself according to it's content rather than allowing the user to resize it.

Gnome-control-centre has many panes, the appearance pane is just one of them, 
you will see the window resize itself as you move between them. Ubiquity the 
installer also probably demands to set it's own dimensions, which is 
particularly annoying on the map page, but that is two separate issues, one in 
gnome-control-centre and one in ubiquity. Neither are a compiz issue, it is 
just doing what the applications ask it to do.
