Synergy doesn't pay attention to pointer barriers?

You can configure synergy to ignore spaces at the corners, but it is a bit of a pain.

Also there is a bad problem that happens when certain types of windows are maximed.. it will block synergy from drifting over. I had this issue with Gnome-terminal. I don't know if it is still a issue however. It has been a while since I last tried it.

Well, the expectation is that multiple monitor setups will pay attention to the pointer barriers that shell sets up - it's very easy to deliberately hit the overview hotspot even if there's a monitor to the left of it. The questions are (a) does shell set those up if it thinks it's on a single monitor setup, and (b) does synergy pay attention to them...
