I occasionally get errors during redisplay, but this is the first time I've noticed this particular error. Errors during redisplay are not so easy to track down, in terms of what a user might have been doing (including apparently "doing" nothing). (The mode line, in particular, seems to be a source of such errors.) I think your best bet might be to somehow make such errors convey more info (e.g., about the context). Hoping for users to provide meaningful context here is not very realistic, I think.
