Title:
  gnome-terminal crashes when copying large amounts of text to xsel

Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  To reproduce:
  0. Install xsel
  1. Open gnome-terminal
  2. Run 'seq 150000 | fmt' to produce a lot of scrollback
  3. Tripple-click on the last line of output
  4. press Shift-Home to scroll to top
  5. Shift-click on the first line of output
  6. Run 'xsel > /tmp/PLEASEDONTCRASH'

  Expected result: no crash

  Actual result: all gnome-terminal windows disappear, and this appears
  in ~/.xsession-errors:

  
  (gnome-terminal:29462): Gdk-WARNING **: The program 'gnome-terminal' received 
an X Window System error.
  This probably reflects a bug in the program.
  The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
    (Details: serial 17484 error_code 3 request_code 18 minor_code 0)
    (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.)
