  === Please provide any additional information below. ===

  While of course BCM doesn't touch the CompactRaidFrames, Blizzard thinks it does. It seems they are now quite sensitive to taining and "touching" a function or frame might get the whole frame tainted. :( Seems to be some discussion going on at WowInterface (http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/showthread.php?t=41974), maybe that helps you?

+ BCM is not the only addon having these seemingly non-related problems. I think, Everdreamer explains it nicely in Altoholic's taint issue: http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/altoholic/tickets/498-the-long-standing-taint-issue/ .

  Yet another update: After disabling the config.lua in the .toc file, raid frames are completely usable again :) So it seems to be the drop downs, indeed.

  Apparently, the fade module taints the aforementioned variable CHAT_FRAME_TAB_NORMAL_NOMOUSE_ALPHA. Disabling that part of BCM seems to help to some degree.

  So, here's the list of variables that get reported in a standard random dungeon run:

  Execution tainted by BasicChatMods while reading ACTIVE_CHAT_EDIT_BOX
  Execution tainted by BasicChatMods while reading COMBAT_TEXT_LOCATIONS
  Execution tainted by BasicChatMods while reading COMBAT_TEXT_X_SCALE
  Execution tainted by BasicChatMods while reading COMBAT_TEXT_Y_SCALE
  Execution tainted by BasicChatMods while reading FloatingChatFrame_OnMouseScroll
  Execution tainted by BasicChatMods while reading LAST_ACTIVE_CHAT_EDIT_BOX
  Execution tainted by BasicChatMods while reading SLASH_BasicChatMods1
  Execution tainted by BasicChatMods while reading SLASH_TELLTARGET1
  Execution tainted by BasicChatMods while reading SLASH_TELLTARGET2
  Execution tainted by BasicChatMods while reading UIDROPDOWNMENU_MENU_LEVEL
  

  Most of these only appear up to ten times, however UIDROPDOWNMENU_MENU_LEVEL is a totally different story. I would think this is the main cause of our troubles :(

  However, I still get taints which cause the default UI raid frames to become unusable. One example would be people leaving/joining a ground in combat - frames that need to be created, hidden, shown or moved don't get touched, messing up all raid frames. Worst case: Someone in the earlier frames leaves and WoW only shifts part of the old frames because they are tainted. Then, whenever I target someone "after" the last "safe" frame, I get a random target instead :( Sucks when healing.
