Hi,
In most buffers, mouse-2 now pastes the content of the X primary
selection. In ansi-term buffers, where mouse-2 is bound to
term-mouse-paste, it pastes the content of the kill ring instead.
This is very confusing, since it means that a click on the same button
of the mouse will paste different result in different buffers.
It also means the usual "select to copy, middle-click to paste"
behavior usual to unix users doesn't work as it is in term mode.
Steps to reproduce:
emacs -Q
M-x ansi-term RET RET
kill a piece of text (C-k or so)
select a piece of text
mouse-2 in ansi-term buffer
mouse-2 in any other buffer

This sounds like a problem indeed. I changed term-mouse-paste to yank
the primary selection.
