It seems that whenever I mark a region (using shift + arrow keys), the contents of that region go into the kill ring, and when I enter text to replace that region, the first character (and only the first character) goes into the kill ring. This seriously breaks some common activities, i.e. copying a piece of code, then pasting it several times, adjusting those parts that need adjusting. Is there an option to disable this less-than-desirable "functionality" until the behaviour is returned to sanity? If not, I suppose I can handle a few extra M-y presses for a while, but I'd like to see this fixed as soon as possible.
