I don't think that the stacktrace will help -- the error message is
=: expects type <number> as 1st argument, given: #f; other arguments were: 3
=== context ===
/home/scheme/plt/collects/drscheme/private/language.ss:257:29
so the offending code is:
(not (= (send rb get-selection) 3))
which assumes that `get-selection' always returns a number.
