IIUC your old code was not correct in some circumstance (maybe in the
presence of multiple frames, can't remember), but indeed the change in
Emacs-24.4 (which was made to fix another problem) breaks such hacks.
The best I can offer so far goes along the following lines:
1- use post-command-hook (or better yet pre-redisplay-function) to set
a global variable `my-selected-window'.
2- use that variable instead of (selected-window) in your modeline :eval code.
