Maybe this change is the culprit?
lisp/ChangeLog:
2012-06-13 Chong Yidong <cyd@gnu.org>
* mouse.el (mouse-drag-track): Do not set the mark if the user
releases the mouse without selecting anything (Bug#11588).
I guess this because:
emacs -Q &
Now in the "scratch" buffer I select the word "then" at the start of 3rd
row *holding down* the SHIF key and moving with right arrow, i.e. not
using mouse. Then with mouse-1 I go to the end of "buffer.". Clicking
with mouse-2 (wheel) I get "then enter the text in that file's own
buffer." pasted. Instead, if I move at the end of "buffer." with arrow
key and there I paste with mouse-2, I correctly get "then".
In other words, if I use the mouse *only* for pasting and not for select
the text and moving the pointer, I get the right behavior.
Ciao,
Angelo.
