I double checked .emacs and site-start.el and the only relevant lines I was able to find appear in my .emacs in that order: (delete-selection-mode 1) (transient-mark-mode -1) (cua-mode -1) Now if the behavior was stable I would have got rid of it long ago by any means, since I noticed it several times and already long ago. However it is NOT stable, but when it has happened once it consistently happens in the current session. So clearly it's a bug.
