I've tried upgrading to gnome-utils-2.24.0-1 and the bug still exists
for me as well. #503852 seems to duplicate the older bug #329596.

I have attached my xorg.conf file and an example of the buggy screenshot.

My layout is like this:

    Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
    Screen      1  "Screen1" LeftOf "Screen0"
    Screen      2  "Screen2" LeftOf "Screen1"

    Screen0 - 1680x1050 (rightmost)
    Screen1 - 1680x1050 (center)
    Screen2 - 1280x1024 (leftmost)

Notice that for me the screenshot includes all of Screen2 and part of
Screen1 (the leftmost 1680 pixels of the xinerama display). Even
though Screen2 is 1280 wide, the visible portion of the screenshot is
exactly the dimensions of the other two screens (1680x1050). The
overall dimensions of the screenshot are correct, but only the
leftmost 1680 pixels are visible.

I suspect that the screenshot program is getting some dimensions from
Screen0 by default and then capturing from the xinerama display. This
could be quite easy to fix if that is the case!
