Bug#723073: linphone: linhone crashes receiving an X Window System error 'BadWindow'

[fortis-juvat]

Package: linphone
Version: 3.6.1-2.1+b1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Anytime I try to start video or just tick the 'Enable self-view' menu-item
linphone crashes with the following output to console:

The program 'linphone' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 8 error_code 3 request_code 3 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.)

It does not depend on the video codec in use and the previous version of
linphone from jessie works flawlessly on my set-up.
