pc-selection-mode - error when set in .emacs

[Joe Koenig <joe.r.user@gmx.de>]

Hi, I have some difficulties turning on

(pc-selection-mode t)

when trying to set this after emacs is started, it works without any
problem. But I get an error message when trying to put it in ~/.emacs.
This is 21.2.1 on Linux. Is it possible that this is caused by me
compiling/installing emacs in a custom directory
/home/joe/apps/bin/emacs
? It obviously finds the folder, as it refers to
/home/apps/bin/emacs/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/emulation/pc-select.elc
The error message changes, when renaming the file (file not found ...).

BTW: I cannot copy'n paste the error message cause the window with the
message dissapears when trying ro click into it. Therefore, just an
extract:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Error in init file: Wrong number of arguments: (Lambda nil "Change mark
behaviour to emulate Motif, Mac or ms-windows cut and paste style " 
...
---------------------------------------------------------------------

So I called "emacs --debug-init". These are the last lines of the debug
message:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
highlight-nonselected-windows nil) (setq transient-mark-mode t) (setq
mark-even-if-inactive t) (delete-selection-mode 1)) 1)
