Hi,

Sometimes I apparently manage to corrupt my org files by having an
unfinished drawers in them. Of course this is wrong and I should
investigate, but if it happens, hitting C-c C-x p leads to a useless
error (Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil). I suggest to
following patch for a better error:

diff --git a/lisp/org.el b/lisp/org.el
index adfbeaa..4489287 100644
--- a/lisp/org.el
+++ b/lisp/org.el
@@ -15612,6 +15612,8 @@ formats in the current buffer."
 	(goto-char (point-min))
 	(while (re-search-forward org-property-start-re nil t)
 	  (setq range (org-get-property-block))
+	  (when (not range)
+	    (error "Invalid property block in buffer %s at position %d" (current-buffer) (point)))
 	  (goto-char (car range))
 	  (while (re-search-forward org-property-re
 		  (cdr range) t)

To test it :
(with-temp-buffer
   (org-mode)
   (insert "* foo\n:PROPERTIES:\n:BAR: \n\n bal")
   (org-set-property nil nil))

AFAICT, a similar mechanism is already implemented in master.
