I'm using 20.3b17 on a Linux (Slackware 3.2, April 97, XFree86) system, with
display set back to my BSD/OS 2.1 system.  Whenever I quit an ediff session
and the itty-bitty frame disappears, I get the following X error:

    xemacs: X Error:  BadWindow
      Request Major code 40 ()
      ResourceID 0x800214
      Error Serial #398162
      Current Serial #398162

I haven't the slightest idea how to go about debugging this problem (it's
been far too long since I noodled around in X).  For starters I suppose it's
worthwhile asking if anyone else reproduce it.  I believe I was getting them
on my BSD/OS system as well (running 20.3b16), but the messages were going
to the console screen and I wasn't seeing them until I exited X.

I don't get them when I just create and delete a frame using C-x 5 2 and C-x
5 0.  There must be some magic ediff is performing to create the problem.

Any suggestions?  Is there more I can do to generate useful input for
someone that can debug this problem?
