This usually indicates a bug in one of the components of the desktop
environment (window manager, clipboard manager etc), where the program
stores an invalid window ID in property describing a selection or
other shared resource.

Unfortunately, such issues are quite hard to track down; even if you
can identify the malformed property, there isn't any systematic way to
identify which program created the property.
