Similar occurs with the primary monitor set to the lower screen, with ATI graphics card (open drivers).
Two monitors connected by VGA, one 1440x900 (top) the other 1600x900 (bottom, primary). Gnome panel only on lower monitor. When maximising a window on the lower monitor, the bottom of the window will stop where it meets the lower panel. The top of the window continues under the top panel (but does not go all the way to the upper monitor), obscuring the titlebar and window control buttons. Maximising windows on the upper monitor works as expected, not intruding onto the lower monitor.
