I can confirm the problem. All solutions posted on the ubuntu/matlab forums 
don't work on Gusty-64bit.
I tried (in all possible permutations) the following:

export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1
export AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit

and one of:
export MATLAB_JAVA=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre
export MATLAB_JAVA=/usr/lib/jvm/java-5-sun/jre
export MATLAB_JAVA=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-icedtea/jre

each time updating the jre with
sudo update-alternatives --config java

I also created a symbolic link motif12->motif21 in the lib/amd64/ of
each jre distribution (as suggested on the matlab forums) to get passed
the first error message, but this produces a matlab segmentation fault
consistently (irrespective of the jre version). To get a bit more info
on the "Segmentation violation" error (as reported by MAtlab) one could
try to run "matlab -nodesktop". This causes a segmentation fault, but at
least you get a matlab crash dump.

Bug 151021 claims that the java/compiz problem is fixed with
jdk1.6.0_02, but the lates jre1.6.0_03 seems to still have the
problem...
