I've had problems pasting from Emacs 21 to firefox (under Debian),
and have stumbled on a solution: 

M-x set-selection-coding-system RET iso-latin-1-unix RET

I can now paste to firefox (and paste strings with accented
characters to xclipboard, which was my workaround). 

Question: what do I lose or risk by setting selection-coding-system
away from the default, compound-text-with-extensions?
