Bug Description
Binary package hint: xterm
When I use Xresources to assign a popup-menu action to a PF key, and then attempt to use that PF key, xterm dies:
X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Major opcode of failed request: 38 (X_QueryPointer)
Resource id in failed request: 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 338
Current serial number in output stream: 338
This is exactly the same as Debian Bug 426364, which was marked as done on June 18, 2007 - see http://<email address hidden>

status: | Expired → Triaged |
It's unlikely to be the same bug.
More likely (since no one's reported anything recent - Ubuntu's
xterm is from last summer) is this item fixed in patch #263:
Patch #263 - 2010/10/13
corrected initialization of "misc" resource values, to ensure that xterm has allocated a copy of strings which may not have been malloc'd by the X library (Debian #600129).
