Looks like a maping bug and it doesn't look like one of the official maps, so you should tell the mapper...
My guess: he's standing behind the wall and the wall is not thick enough.

The mapper has just seen it and has to say it is not a bug of the map, as everything are quite large blocks. There is no such thing as a "thin wall" on the map.
HOWEVER: there is one place where two of these blocks only touch at one corner, and there has been a Nexuiz 2.0 bug that one player model didn't even approximately fit into his player bounding box. It looks like it is still a bit broken in 2.1.
The mapper didn't expect visible parts of the player to be outside his bounding box... working around that problem in the map would however mean removing or displacing one item (the Nex).
Maybe I'll fix it in a later version, but I don't think so. Maybe I'll instead work around it by adding a bit of invisible clip at the corner. That feels strange, but does not require everyone to redownload the map.

1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again
You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

It's probably the same effect there too. It happened even more in 2.0...
BTW: which player model is the player on the screenshot "wearing"?

Oh good.. Someone that posted something that I have been thinking of posting a long time but everytime I forget that.
Yes in 2.1 the player model is still broken, the hit box is inside the map while the player model is outside it in some places, if not all. The models' name is Carni as far as I know. Haven't checked other models but I believe Morfar has and according to him it was only the Carni model.
I've seen this "bug" on almost all of the maps. Damn, heh everytime I see that bug I think "Oh right, I have to inform the devs." But as soon as I quit Nexuiz that thought is gone like the wind lool
If it's not the "hitbox" bug then well.. there's something wrong Grand HOWTO: http://forums.alientrap.local/viewtopic.php?t=4435
