No, not recently.  Last time I tried it it worked fine, but I did not 
run it for any length of time so I can't be sure metacity was stable. 
If I had to guess I would think metacity would be more stable in gnome 
than KDE but there is no particular reason it should be.

No, X86_64 server with 32 bit clients.  I tried reverting the client 
image to an old version and the behavior didn't change -- which makes 
sense since the window manager runs on the server.

Are the servers you are running also 32 bit?

Also, somewhat related, is it possible to run the window manager on the 
client?  I have never really understood how X ties together the various 
things running on the server and the client.
