#5 is a valid workaround if compiz is working (for the most part) and
just happened to have a one-off crash that took away unity and all
window decorations.  Coming up with a solution to get your desktop back
without restarting the computer or even GDM isn't that obvious.

Unfortunately, SIGABRT in raise() is a very general bug.  We (the end
users) aren't seeing why (0 <= index && index < 24).  There could be
multiple fronts causing index to go out of range, leaving compiz in
varying states for different people.

An example I just noticed is that there isn't a line about the nvidia
kernel module in the submitter's report.  All bug reports I file mention
the nvidia kernel module.  With that very limited information, I would
assume that Jamie and the bug submitter are using one of the built-in
open-source 3D drivers (nv, r[nnn]g, intel) while Thiago and I are using
nvidia (or fglrx).  But that's going off very limited information so I
very well could be wrong.  Then again, I just used that as an example of
what I meant by multiple fronts.
