Package: kwin
Version: 3.5.10-1
Just to confirm, I have the same bug after running apt-get dist-upgrade today, windows maximize incorrectly, xterms go to the wrong monitors, etc.

Fix/work-around, download this (for i386):
http://debian.oregonstate.edu/debian/pool/main/k/kdebase/kwin_3.5.9.dfsg.1-6_i386.deb

# dpkg -i kwin_3.5.9.dfsg.1-6_i386.deb
dpkg - warning: downgrading kwin from 4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-2 to 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-6. 
(Reading database ... 159424 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace kwin 4:3.5.10.dfsg.1-2 (using kwin_3.5.9.dfsg.1-6_i386.deb) ... 
Unpacking replacement kwin ...
Setting up kwin (4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-6) ...

Add this to your /etc/apt/preferences:
Package: kwin
Pin: version 3.5.9*
Pin-Priority: 1000
This fixes the problem for now until a new version of kwin is release w/xinerama support. 

Justin.

I'm closing this bug since the versions affected are even older than Lenny.
