OK, this only happens AFTER you have done an Alt-C (copy to clipboard) 
in Squeak.

And it does this when I copy to the clipboard from any other 
application.

So perhaps it has to do with losing the X selection.

If I insert a break after the 'case SelectionClear:' around line 1153 
(so it doesn't fall through into 'case SelectionRequest') this 
doesn't happen.

However, I (often but not always) get a beep on the first Alt-C that I 
do in Squeak. The text seems to always get put in the clipboard, 
however.

These changes seem to fix both the ctrl-arrow wheel problem and the 
crash on losing the selection:
