This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':

In the first frame, go to *scratch* if not alread there.
C-x 5 2.  In the new frame C-x b tmp
Select the text "This buffer is for notes".
Move mouse to the other frame and press mouse-2.  The text is inserted
as it should.
Double click on "buffer" (in the line that was just inserted) to select
it.
Go back to the frame with *scratch* and press mouse-2.  The selected
word "buffer" is not inserted, but the old selection "This buffer is for
notes".

To make the word "buffer" be pasted in to *scratch* you must
1. Select "buffer"
2. Move the cursor in *scratch* with mouse-1 to a new place.
3. Then press mouse-2.

Number 2 is a strange requirement for mouse-2 to behave normally.
