Yes, and it's fixed in svn too. 

Things can get nasty if you set XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS for some apps and not
with others.

Typically, XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS hides ARGB32 visuals from the app that's
running. So you you run Terminal w/out XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS set, then "real"
ARGB32 will work, but if you then run the WM with XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS set,
then the WM is not able to reparent the ARGB32 window in its top level window
frame because it can't find a matching visual/depth. In this case, xfwm4 simply
don't reparent the window, while metacity and kwin dies with an error.

So, what I can tell so far is, as long as the set up is correct (ie the user
don't mess up with XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS, it works fine with xfwm4 from svn
trunk).
