Compiz: CCSM, Emerald, fusion-icon - Floating Point Exception [SOLVED]

So it turns out the GTK problems was the cause of the Compiz problems. Bespin was the culprit, this was fixed by changing the GTK theme to something other then bespin.
Kicker > System Settings > Appearance > GTK Style and fonts (use another style)

Original message:
Hi, I am having problems with my compiz installation. Everything was working fine until i restarted the system now I get "Floating Point Exception" errors when trying to start compiz.

I can successfully start compiz via compiz --replace. However window boarders and AWN will not function.
On another note neither Firefox or thunderbird will start (also giving the same error) The only correlation i see is that they're both GTK applications.

I am running KDEmod 4.3.1, latest nvidia drivers and Arch Linux x86_64
