I've just installed gutsy and have noticed the same problem.
Fortunately, I discovered a decent workaround: start rdesktop at a
resolution very slightly smaller then your full-screen resolution. For
example, my laptop's resolution is 1280x800, so I start rdesktop like
this:

rdesktop -g 1280x799 <hostname>

When rdesktop comes up, it will be in a window, and you will be able to
easily switch between fullscreen and windowed mode using Ctrl-Alt-Enter.
Of course, your RDP session won't use the bottom row of pixels on your
screen, but that seems like a small price to pay. Also, you'll probably
have to start rdesktop from the command line, as it doesn't seem that
tsclient and grdesktop support passing arbitrary resolutions to
rdesktop.
