Yes. Since I've failed to make it reproducible so far, I assume
that it happens due to an unstable CVS version that I got. My Emacs
seems to switch into this strange yank mode approximately twice per
week and stays there until restarted, but sometimes it recovers
earlier. Yes, I do know how odd this sounds. :-/
Anyway, I think I can live with it until the next release.
Tschoe,
Torsten.
