os x selection stuff broken

os x selection stuff broken

[Perry E. Metzger]

Howdy;

Sometime in the last week or two on head, the code to copy and paste
to the clipboard (or whatever the global cut/copy/paste thing in OS X
actually is called) broke badly, or changed in some undocumented
fashion. (For example, ns-store-selection-internal is now unbound.)
Has anyone been fiddling with it?

Maybe it is the same thing described in bug #18816. Se the thread

Yes, but you may not have noticed that yanks are also broken.

I believe this changelog entry may be relevant:

2014-10-21  Stefan Monnier  <monnier@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * nsselect.m (ns_get_local_selection): Signal error rather
          than `quit'. (Fns_own_selection_internal): Tighten scoping.
        (Fns_selection_exists_p): Rename from Fx_selection_exists_p.
        (Fns_get_selection): Rename from Fx_get_selection_internal.
        (Fns_get_selection_internal, Fns_store_selection_internal):
        Remove functions.
        (syms_of_nsselect): Adjust accordingly.

Ah, and it might now be fixed. I'll rebuild.

No, read all the thread:

    http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2014-10/msg01103.html

CMD-c and CMD-v work only inside Emacs, but not with external 
applications (if one wants to copy text from Emacs to the Terminal or 
the contrary)

As of last night, it was still broken, but I see there have been
commits overnight to nsselect.m
