I've just did some more testing, and it seems the second part of this
bug is caused by the same issue that causes bug #162762.

When the user initiates moving a window using the Alt+drag combination,
compiz calls (among other things)

     updateWindowAttributes(w,CompStackingUpdateModeAboveFullscreen) followed by
     updateWindowAttributes(w,CompStackingUpdateModeNone)

However, when the user initiates a window move by dragging its title
bar, the calls are:

     updateWindowAttributes(w, CompStackingUpdateModeAboveFullscreen)
     raiseWindow(w)
     updateWindowAttributes(w, CompStackingUpdateModeNone)

However, the call to raiseWindow(w) contains a call that looks like
addWindowStackChanges (w, &xwc, findSiblingBelow (w, FALSE)), which
actually causes the window to be re-stacked _below_ any fullscreen
windows. As I mentioned in bug #162762, I don't see any reason why that
FALSE shouldn't be TRUE, so using the fix I proposed there should fix
part 2 of this bug, too.

Alternatively, if there is a very good reason why raiseWindow does
things the way it does now, probably the raiseWindow should be replaced.
