clipboard problem Xfce 4.8

Hi,
    I am getting inconsistent behavior with clipboard from any applications since the upgrade to Xfce 4.8, in QT applications i get this error after close the app "QClipboard: Unable to receive an event from the clipboard manager in a reasonable time", I have upgraded at the same time the kernel to use kernel26-bfs, do anyone can reproduce this problem with xfce 4.8, kernel26-bfs or both?

I tried with one of my own app. There was the same error. It seems that the problem appears if there is an empty clipboard. So, set the text of clipboard to some dummy text when u initialize the clipboard. This resolved for me. Do, let me know..
