My mistake.
I thought Metacity played some minor role, especially since Unity is slightly
more stable after issuing compiz --replace from within a running instance of
Unity 3D. In this case, what I'm doing is simply restarting Unity 3D. Perhaps
it's a perceptual thing.
I just had compiz crash on me while logged in under the Openbox/Gnome,
which begs to question why compiz is running if openbox is being used as
a wm or how they're relegating work. But to the point, I guess my issue
was with compiz all along.

Title:
Metacity causes unity to crash using Gallium 0.4 on ATI RV530
Status in “metacity” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I gather the issue is with compiz because
compiz --replace
takes care of some random crashes and flickering.
Another solution is to edit
/usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/ubuntu-2d.session
so that on the line that reads
DefaultProvider-windowmanager=
metacity
is replaced with
compiz
Hardware
First generation (2006) Intel MacBook Pro (Intel Core Duo, aka Yonah based
processor) with an ATI Mbility Radeon X1600 video card.
