PointerIndex out of range in native code?

Question

Can you help me track down this stack trace - it doesn't seem to be in my code, or at least give me some tips of tracing the problem?

I have various lists which it may stem from, and only one which uses the FastScroller. (If I am to assume this is the fast-scroll bar.)

See the Android bug database entry

This was happening to me when I was preventing all events from getting to the ScaleGestureDetector by filtering some out in an override of ViewPager.onTouchEvent.
