Was this fixed?

The issue described in the original report seems to be gone, but it
seems like now the workaround (which is also reasonable behaviour) does
not work:

emacs -Q -f make-frame
C-x b tmp

In scratch, left click and drag to select "This buffer is for notes"

Use middle button to paste into tmp.

Double click on "buffer" in tmp to select it.

Left-click somewhere in *scratch*.  [1]

Middle click in scratch now pastes "This buffer is for notes" rather
than the expected "buffer".

It works without step [1].
