As a work-around, I changed the affected doc-strings so that the
different versions all say the same thing. Eli, could you check if this
works OK on Windows?
Right now, this change is only on the branch. I'll check this into the
trunk, at a later date, only if we can't come up with a better solution.

It works on Windows, thanks.
However:
. the doc string of x-select-enable-clipboard:
(defcustom x-select-enable-clipboard t
"Non-nil means cutting and pasting uses the clipboard.
-This is in addition to the primary selection."
+This is in addition to, but in preference to, the primary selection."
should IMO say that on Windows this is the default, and perhaps
also that primary selection is not accessible to other programs
there.
. the doc string of x-colors:
(defvar x-colors (mapcar 'car msdos-color-values)
- "The list of colors available on a PC display under MS-DOS.")
+ "List of available colors for graphical frames.
+For X, the list comes from the `rgb.txt' file,v 10.41 94/02/20.
+For Nextstep, this is a list of non-PANTONE colors returned by
+the operating system.")
incorrectly says that these are colors for graphical frames, which
the MS-DOS display isn't.
. you didn't add doc strings to x-set-selection and x-get-selection
on w32-fns.el -- was that on purpose?
