+This patch by Ben Hutchings <b...@decadent.org.uk>.
+
+xprop -spy should exit cleanly when the target window is destroyed.
+The current behaviour is that it sometimes dies with a BadWindow error
+and sometimes hangs around after the target has been destroyed.
+
+We fix this by listening for destroy events but also catching
+BadWindow errors (and BadMatch, which may sometimes be received
+instead of BadWindow). We print a new-line before exiting from the
+error handler, since we may have generated partial output for a
+property change.
