Subject: bug#8869: Unjustified selection time-out
Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2011 11:42:53 -0400

Package: Emacs
Version: 24.0.50

I recently started to get "selection time out errors" when deleting
frames, which more recently turned into "mere delays", but they're still
present.  Maybe it is true that my system is misconfigured, but AFAIK
I never messed with any clipboard configuration and no other application
seems to exhibit such a delay when exiting, so I suspect there's a bug
in our handling.
E.g. I suspect the new code sometimes thinks there's a "modern clipboard
manager" running when in reality there simply isn't any.  Or maybe your
delay is much longer than what is used by other applications.
