I have submitted these ports for commit, they should go in by sometime
tomorrow...  For the impatient, the PRs are 116136-9.  I have a hack in
place which allows ccsm to enable/disable plugins without causing compiz
to segfault, so everything should be good.

I am currently starting compiz as "compiz --replace ccp".  The ccp
plugin comes from libcompizconfig.  If you are using intel graphics, you
need to set LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=3D1 for compiz to run.  i.e.
"LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=3D1 compiz --replace ccp".  If you are using a
radeon card with the AIGLX patch, you also need this.
