Hello.
I can easily reproduce this bug. Emacs does get restored, but metacity is
buggy, and doesn't draw the window correctly. Other apps also don't redraw
correctly with metacity and compositing_manager true. For example, Chromium
menus don't pop down and are left on the screen, the Gnome panel sometimes
vanishes, and so on. If you wan't compositing_manager use compiz, it is
nowhere near as buggy as metacity. Emacs (and other apps) works fine with it.
BTW, you probably meant (set-frame-parameter nil 'alpha 94). Also, please use
report-emacs-bug for bugs like these.

I reverted to the version before this commit, but the bug in metacity remains.
It is probably a fluke that your meatcity works with that version.
