I've seen this as well, but for me it's very specific.
1. Open xterm
2. ssh to my linux box, run screen with irssi
3. Minimize xterm
4. Go to another application, switch between other apps and X11. This
part takes some time and I haven't been able to figure out if anything
I'm doing during that time is causing this.
5. Restore xterm - at this point, the xterm goes away and I get this
in the console:
