Broken mouse button 1 binding causes bugs, suchs as:
* When selecting text with mouse button 1, the selected area
is not highlighted until the button is released and the
selection is complete.
* If button 1 is bound to panning in .xpdfrc then trying
to pan with button 1 does nothing.
This is due to a motif behavior that is well documented in
online forums. Below is a patch that fixes this problem, in
particular the two behaviors listed above.
(by the way "strongly encouraging" someone to use your fancy
new tool (reportbug) (instead of an older, reliable method)
that does something such as crashing on 'submit' and doesn't
even save its state, is becoming ever more common in the
free software world. However, it is a good way to annoy
people and make yourself look foolish.)
