Subject: OS/X drag and drop bug report

In earlier versions (e.g. 22.x), the Mac OS/X Emacs.app correctly  
implemented drag and drop for the file icon in the frame title bar.  
For example, while visiting a file "file.txt", I could drag this icon  
into a Finder window and the file would be copied there, or I could  
drag the icon into an email message and the file would be attached.

In this version (23.1.2), the drag does not always pick up the visited  
file---instead it sometimes picks up the file corresponding to some  
other buffer.
