    It works if (STRING . RETURN-TYPE) is returned.  But, can we
    also change x-get-selection to return that cons?

That would be an incompatible change, but it is in a low-level function
that I think is not used much by users.  So I think it is ok to make an
incompatible change here.

I am not certain that approach is better, but if you agree it is better,
please do it.
