It is void as a variable. Clicking on the `C source code' link results in an error: Search failed: "Vselection-coding-system " I see that selection-coding-system _is_ defined, using defcustom, in lisp/select.el, and was removed from C code on 2008-02-01, but something apparently still thinks it's defined in C code... Emacs is from CVS trunk, checked out about an hour ago, compiled with "make bootstrap". -Miles -- Cat, n.
