The bug doesn't reproduce anymore. Both the extracted-from-xfwm4.c test
program and xfwm4 now work, on my Ubuntu 16.04 machine with the NVIDIA
GeForce 750 Ti card. I configured it back to nouveau and enabled
compositing.
I'm guessing an update fixed it?

(The xfmw4 version number is bogus -- I'm using my own patched version
to work around an incompatibility with VirtualBox.)
