German quotes are looking this way: „[...]“ (as XML entities:
„[...]“ = low 99 ... upper 66).

I can paste them from Emacs into an xterm, but back from the xterm and
pasted into Emacs the closing "upper 66" is broken.
It has double width:

Char:  (0150310, 53448, 0xd0c8, file ...) point=533 of 746 (71%) column 6 

initially it was:

Char: “ (01234574, 342396, 0x5397c, file ...) point=337 of 851 (39%) column 42 

And then, Gnus complains (thus I'll remove the offening character for
posting):

0xd0c8 is a character of charset japanese-jisx0208.  Emacs
by default requests a selection of type COMPOUND_TEXT.  It
seems that xterm, on responding to it, encodes U+201C into a
character of japanese-jisx0208.  It itself is not a bug
because that that character can be mapped to U+201C
according to glibc's charset mapping table.

Please try this:

(setq x-select-request-type '(UTF8_STRING COMPOUND_TEXT TEXT STRING))

Then Emacs requests a selection of type UTF8_STRING at first.

It seems that gnus included in the latest Emacs doesn't have
this bug.  First of all, it doesn't have the function
gnus-multiple-choice.

thanks for the explanation.

thanks, this helps.

I'm wondering whether this setting would be appropriate as the default
on GNU/Linux distributions which set UTF-8 as the system default
encoding.

In the past I used this setting successfully.  Unfortunately, it does
not seem to catch all the other characters properly; e.g., the 'lower d with a
dash' in "Dindic" (simplified) as cut from
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoran_%C4%90in%C4%91i%C4%87 is too wide:

    Zoran Ðinđić

Char: đ (0212242, 70818, 0x114a2, file ...) point=1406 of 2969 (47%) column 13 

But "Zoran Đinđić" is the version wanted:

Char: đ (01210061, 331825, 0x51031, file ...) point=1506 of 3096 (49%) column 14

What can I do to work around this problem?

Works for me.  Both your mail and the name pasted from the web page use
only the 0x51031 character in my Emacs (which is pretty recent).  But
maybe that's because I'm using a language environment that is slightly
modified from German to favor UTF-8:

(set-language-info-alist
 "German-utf8" '((charset ascii latin-iso8859-1 mule-unicode-0100-24ff
			  mule-unicode-2500-33ff mule-unicode-e000-ffff)
		 (coding-system iso-latin-1 iso-latin-9 mule-utf-8)
		 (coding-priority mule-utf-8 iso-latin-1)
		 (documentation . "\
This language environment is almost the same as German,
but favors UTF-8 encoding.")
		 (unibyte-display . iso-latin-1)
		 (unibyte-syntax . "latin-1")
		 (nonascii-translation . latin-iso8859-1)
		 (input-method . "german-postfix")
		 (tutorial . "TUTORIAL.de"))
 '("European"))

Andreas.

When I open that URL by mozilla and paste that name into
Emacs, I get 0x51031 (which is what you want) for d-dash.
In what locale, are you running your browser?  What is the
value of last-coding-system-used just after you paste the
name?

No problem - Andreas hwo was not able to reproduce the problem already
answered; unfortunately, updating to a recent CVS version did not make
the problem go away for me.

last-coding-system-used's value is 
compound-text-with-extensions

I tested mozilla started with that locale, but still can't
reproduce the problem.   The version of my mozilla is:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020623 Debian/1.0.0-0.woody.1

What is yours?  I suspect that your mozilla doesn't use
UTF8_STRING somehow.

I want you to test these two methods (each independently).

(1) Force Emacs to request only UTF8_STRING on receiving
    selection.

(setq x-select-request-type 'UTF8_STRING)

(2) Force compound-text-with-extensions to translate latin
characters in korean-ksc5601 to mule-unicode-0100-24ff.

(coding-system-put
 'compound-text-with-extensions
 'translation-table-for-decode
 (make-translation-table
  (let ((row #x21) (row-to #x2F)
	col char unicode map)
    (while (<= row row-to)
      (setq col #x21)
      (while (<= col #x7E)
	(setq char (make-char 'korean-ksc5601 row col)
	      unicode (encode-char char 'ucs))
	(if (and unicode (>= unicode #x80))
	    (setq map (cons (cons char (decode-char 'ucs unicode)) map)))
	(setq col (1+ col)))
      (setq row (1+ row)))

It looks the like.  Mine is

    "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040114"

This way it work.  I'm inclined to switch to this setting.

This also works even it I use it in combination with

    (setq x-select-request-type '(COMPOUND_TEXT UTF8_STRING TEXT STRING))

Thanks for your debugging hints; I hope you can make use of my testing.
