Hi Lennart

It is by design - maybe bad design, but it is documented:

| C-x C-x runs the command cua-exchange-point-and-mark, which is an
| interactive compiled Lisp function in `cua-base.el'.
|  
| It is bound to C-x C-x.
|  
| (cua-exchange-point-and-mark ARG)
|  
| Exchanges point and mark, but don't activate the mark.
| Activates the mark if a prefix argument is given.


I suggest that you could make an option cua-exchange-point-and-mark-activate-mark
(default off) that reverses the meaning of the prefix argument.

Feel free to make that (tiny) change.

Kim
