Hi,

an user of my application, which uses Scintilla, reported a strange
problem:
he selects some text in the Scintilla widget(GTK) and want to paste it
with the middle mouse button somewhere else in the same widget. And it
doesn't work. He can paste text in the widget which was selected in
other applications and he can select text in the widget and paste this
text in other applications. But if he selects and paste in the same
Scintilla widget, it doesn't work.

He tried it with Gnome, KDE and fluxbox under a Debian Sarge and a
Debian Etch system. First I thought, this should be a bug in my app,
but he reported that the problem also occurs with SciTE and gphpedit.
So, we have three apps, which based on Scintilla with the same bug. So,
I think it is possible, that this can be a bug in Scintilla.

The biggest problem is, I can't reproduce it. At my system all works as
expected.
He also reported that copy and paste with Ctrl+c and Ctrl+v works
without problems. It is only the PRIMARY clipboard which makes problems.

Does anyone have an idea?

Regards,
Enrico
