empathy abort

[Elan Ruusamäe]

i see that chromium crash was resolved quite quickly, perhaps any ideas 
why empathy is failing?
i do not find any package update being relevant from my system, as i 
don't know when it actually broke (it's long running app here)

$ empathy &
(empathy:5937): Gdk-ERROR **: The program 'empathy' 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 174 error_code 2 request_code 131 minor_code 47)
   (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 GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
    variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
    backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() 
function.)
