No, the problem is still present on the trunk.  But I suspect that after
you introduced the `gui-backend-selection-owner-p' test in
gui--selection-value-internal, the logic surrounding
gui--last-selected-text-clipboard in gui-selection-value is no longer
necessary, and should just be removed now.

But I haven't analysed the problem in depth, and I don't know how this
works on non-X systems -- perhaps that DWIM logic in gui-selection-value
is still necessary on some systems.
