log is attached. the last bit (the relevant bit?) is:

got ['button-action', 1, 5, 1, [39, 94], []]
current mask: set([]), wanted: set([])

Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'xpra' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
   (Details: serial 455 error_code 2 request_code 131 minor_code 2)
   (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
    that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
    To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
    option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
    backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error()  
function.)
aborting...
