I'm not quite sure.

   ...text | fringe | scrollbar | something |
   -------------------- modeline ------------
   ...text | fringe | scrollbar | something |

Sp far, I couldn't produce the error anywhere when the mouse is above
the modeline.  It's just saying that 'nil something' is undefined.

Below the modeline, it's happening when being in 'fringe', 'scrollbar'
'something' AFAICT.  Sorry, it's a hard to move the mouse precisely, and
the rounded edge of the frame doesn't help either.

I think this shows one of the events leading to the error:

  pixel-scroll-precision-scroll-up-page(0)
  pixel-scroll-precision-scroll-up(1)
  pixel-scroll-precision((wheel-up (#<window 4 on  *Minibuf-0*> 
vertical-scroll-bar (576 . 8) 137763384 nil 1 (81 . 0) nil (576 . 8) (15 . 16)) 
1 0 (0.0 . 1.0)))
  funcall-interactively(pixel-scroll-precision (wheel-up (#<window 4 on  
*Minibuf-0*> vertical-scroll-bar (576 . 8) 137763384 nil 1 (81 . 0) nil (576 . 
8) (15 . 16)) 1 0 (0.0 . 1.0)))
