Thanks for all your help Joseph and Eli - I just tried it with Emacs 24.5.1
in Xubuntu 15.10 under VirtualBox emulation on Windows but it didn't have a
problem - x-selection-timeout was 5000 ms - I tried at 2000 and 0 but no
problem there either.

I'll see if I can get a dual boot setup tomorrow so I can help debug it, in
case the VM is interfering with the clipboard somehow.

The x-selection-timeout is something specific to Linux - I wasn't aware
that the selection could timeout like that - I'd tested it on a Linux VM
(with Ubuntu) when it was released back in March or April, and it seemed to
work alright, though I most likely didn't try the shift+click window.

I'll look into the X window selection routines in some more detail tomorrow
also.

Brian
