I don't know, it seems xd_retrieve_arg tries to decode received data,
but when it receives garbage, then "Garbage In - Garbage Out".

These errors appear at the rate of one error per day,
so no bisecting is possible in a reasonable time.
Today dbus-handle-event signaled the error with
a string of 6 random bytes, and not crashed, but
I forgot to look at traces, so no luck this time.
