What were you trying to do?

What's wrong:

For apparently no reason my xterm died.  No reason as in I was not even
typing on the keyboard, just clicked the mouse over the xterm.  Here is
the error message that appeared on the console:

12:37 xterm1:  warning, error event receieved:
12:37 X Error of failed request:  BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error)
12:37   Major opcode of failed request:  18 (X_ChangeProperty)
12:37   Minor opcode of failed request:  0
12:37   Resource id in failed request:  0x400014
12:37   Serial number of failed request:  56751
12:37   Current serial number in output stream:  56752


What should have happened:

The xterm shouldn't have died.
