Two screens behave like one big screen when activating fullscreen mode

I have two screens (1080p) running in TwinView mode, running Minecraft in fullscreen mode makes it appear on both screens, making it unplayable.
I manually set the game's resolution and display using KWin (KDE only) to fix this, I was unable to do this with GNOME.

This bug did not appear in windows 7.

The attached screenshot only shows the left screen, the other one works too.

Even worse with 13w48b. It's now impossible to force fullscreen by OS so it's impossible now.
Minecraft is also forced to render on second screen (right one in this case), windowed and fullscreen. That means fullscreen is now on one screen only, but still renders at doubled width and is cut in half.

I've only observed better behavior (full screen is now native on my computer, which means it is done by the OS) because my OS knows how to deal with full screen apps done natively.

Every other app works just fine switching to fullscreen. Minecraft doesn't change resolution when done by OS, now it doesn't even switch to borderless window mode anymore.
Minecraft's Fullscreen Mode (F11) just doesn't work at all.

Even worse, fullscreen mode is only rendered on second (right) screen, left one is black. Minecraft still tries to render 3840x1080, so it's cut in half.
The worst about it: Exiting fullscreen mode crashes X11 (Kubuntu 13.10, nVidia 319.60) and everything looks like this when lucky: http://devin.lun4.net/files/ScrS.png But most of the time, my desktop ends up black with a blurred line (~3840x32).

Might be a lwjgl bug, but this doesn't happen on windows, so I'm not sure.

Confirmed in 1.8.1-pre3 using Mint 16

Pretty sure it is a lwjgl issue though.

Is this still an issue in the most recent versions (i.e. 1.10.2, or 16w42a) of Minecraft?
