Subject: bug#35581: 25.3; freeze on `kill-new' x2: xclip + emacs server + 'emacsclient -nw'

From: Mat <[email-masked]>

1. run X gui emacs
2. install ~xclip~ package
3. ~M-x xclip-mode~
4. ~M-x server-start~
5. ~(kill-new "adaf")~
6. run ~emacsclient -nw~ from terminal.
7. ~(kill-new "sss")~

Emacs freezes.

Configuration used:
(setq save-interprogram-paste-before-kill t)
(require 'package)
(let* ((no-ssl (and (memq system-type '(windows-nt ms-dos))   ;; add melpa
repo: either through ssl or non-ssl.
                    (not (gnutls-available-p))))
       (url (concat (if no-ssl "http" "https") "://melpa.org/packages/")))
  (add-to-list 'package-archives (cons "melpa" url) t))
(package-initialize)
(custom-set-variables
 ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
 ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
 ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
 ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
 '(package-selected-packages (quote (xclip))))
(custom-set-faces
 ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
 ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
 ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
 ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
 )

`save-interprogram-paste-before-kill' makes extra action: current value X
clipboard is stored to kill-ring, before new value is put there.
I use xclip commandline tool to talk to X clipboard from emacs.
