Yes, altough I think you mean “randr 1.2”.

I can confirm this, but I'm not sure it's xfwm fault, it seems that the
panel placement will greatly influence that. Basically when there's a
panel on the path it something fishy happens, so it might be related to
xfce4-panel.
But yeah, afaict, it only happens in a vertical screens placement with
an horizontal panel between them (wether on the bottom of the top screen
or on the top of bottom screen).
