Update: Taking a bit longer than I expected, mostly thanks to debian's
gnustep packages having some known bugs on amd64 that _I_ didn't know
about, could have saved myself a _lot_ of time just latest svn gnustep
in the first place, gah.
One work-in-progess note: Turns out that first patch wasn't quite
correct either, modern GNUstep's "gpbs" pasteboard daemon actually
supports a conventional [1] mapping to X11 selections, as follows,
visible in [2]
x11 side ns side
CLIPBOARD General Pasteboard
PRIMARY "Selection" named pasteboard
SECONDARY "Secondary" named pasteboard
(Wonder if the Xquartz guys are aware of that...)
I think it is quite obviously desirable that ns emacs adopt that scheme.
[1] At one stage gnustep did use a different scheme, there is still a
backward compat defaults setting that flips them around
("GSOldClipboard"), but the default is now the above, thankfully.
