This is likely coming from the "OSC 52" SetSelection support
recently added and which your gnome-terminal apparently doesn't support
yet term/xterm.el doesn't realize it.

Could you add some debug `message's to check that
terminal-init-xterm-activate-set-selection is indeed called (it
apparently shouldn't).  The problem is likely in xterm--version-handler
to add also some `message's there to see what `version' number is sent
by gnome-terminal (and why the code doesn't set it back to 200)?
