Ah, good.
Have you tried to find out which of these parameters is wrong ?
(just have a printout of several calls of this code part, including the call
that bombed, and compare them... should help)

Nope, but:
man XGetSubImage ;-))

andi at andi:/usr/local/src/wine$ loc XGetSubImage
/usr/X11R6/man/man3/XGetSubImage.3x.gz
andi at andi:/usr/local/src/wine$ dpkg -S /usr/X11R6/man/man3/XGetSubImage.3x.gz
xlibs-dev: /usr/X11R6/man/man3/XGetSubImage.3x.gz

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadMatch  An InputOnly window is used as a Drawable.

       BadMatch  Some argument or pair of arguments has the cor-
                 rect type and range but fails to match in some
                 other way required by the request.

Hmm, I guess putting a sleep(60); before the BadMatching XGetSubImage
and using xwininfo on the window it wants to use might help to find out
stuff...

Hmm, nothing too obvious here. Upon first glance, all parameter values seem
to be about right.
I guess the dimensions could be wrong, e.g. 1x21 fits into the src drawable,
but not into the dst image (or the other way around).
Try playing with the dimension values ("fixing" them on the fly) to possibly
find out whether that's the problem.

Oh yeah, and did I mention that I hate BadMatch errors ?
It's a bit difficult to find out what's going on...
