So that is not the cause of this issue. That is strange, because if I make all the changes mentioned in NEWS.24, in "emacs -Q", then your recipe works for me as you expected. Did you try that in "emacs -Q"? If not, please try; if "emacs -Q" with the changes from NEWS.24 does work, then there's some other customization in your init files which gets in the way. > You do agree this is a bug - that fails, correct? It is not a bug, it is a consequence of the changes in how selections work in Emacs. Your example assumes the old handling of selections, so it doesn't work with Emacs >= 24 defaults.
