Package: compiz-core
Version: 0.8.2-6
Severity: normal

if something goes wrong in its attempt to start compiz.real
the compiz script has a nuber of fallback options, and in my
case it goes down to the last resort of starting an xterm

alas it uses the same option that would be good for a window 
manager, "--restart", option on which xterm chokes and dies

the last lines from a "sh -x /usr/bin/compiz" command execution:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
/usr/bin/compiz: line 455:  6723 Aborted                 ${COMPIZ_BIN_PATH}${COMPIZ_NAME} $COMPIZ_OPTIONS "$@" $COMPIZ_PLUGINS
+ exec xterm --replace
xterm:  bad command line option "--replace"
[...]
