Stack trace

Using Eclipse 4.4.0, CDT 8.4.0.
SWT_GTK3=0 UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 eclipse &
Running Gnome / gdm on Ubuntu 14.04

This happened when pressing down arrow for a few seconds in Project
Explorer and then after some second(s) the line selection started
wakling slowly downwards without possibility to interrupt it. See attached stack trace.

It looks like PasteAction is not handling some kind of special clipboard content but I'm have no clue what it is. The problem has not been reproduced after the clipboard was modified (Ctrl-C in a text editor).
