Bug Description

I'm running Lubuntu 13.04 Beta 2 with Compiz. I've been launching gconf-editor as follows, trying to execute a change to move metacity buttons from the right to the left - (I'm using gtk-window-decorator).

However, it suffers a hard crash immediately after gconf-editor is launched with the specified key (output below)...
