The fact that Paste and Select and Paste behave differently is not a
bug: Paste could be enabled because Emacs sees text in the X selection
(or the Windows clipboard). In that case, if the Emacs kill-ring is
empty, Select and Paste will be disabled.
Both of these have conditions of the form (and ... (not buffer-read-only)),
so I don't see how either of them could be enabled in a read-only buffer
regardless of other circumstances.
The same is true of Cut.
Can anyone debug this? Does anyone else see it fail this way?
