Interesting; I can recreate this if there is a maximised window in the workspace to the left of the window I'm trying to move.

So in my case I have a 3x3 grid of workspaces;

1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9

If in (2) I have a maximized firefox and I try and move the aisleriot in (3) the firefox moves.
If I unmaximise the firefox I can move aisleriot.

same here, not fixed.

I can reproduce quite easily with my 6x1 workspaces.
I have 2 workspaces with full screen apps: the 2nd with evolution and the 5th with an xterm
if i try to move anything in workspace 1,3,4,6, no problem
if i try to move evolution, it moves.. but if the next action is to move something from 1,3,4,6, evolution moves instead.
If i try again (the same window), it works.

Same if i move the xterm in 5 first, the next action moves the xterm.

(I would love to take a video of that but i can't make gtk-recordMyDesktop work with the wall).

Look at the compiz task which is still fix committed and not fix released, you need to wait on next compiz upload before reporting the fix not working.

This hasn't been fixed entirely, although it's better than it was. Now it tends to happen especially at the start of the compiz session (after log in or after a crash and re-spawn), and then the problem seems to disappear (or happen less often, I'm not quite sure yet).
