It still looks the same to me like before.  I've also attached gdb and
set a breakpoint in selection_copy and never got there.  The problem
seems to be that in old_main.c line 236, event.vc is 1, and cinfo[1] is
NULL.  In fact, cinfo is completly filled with NULL.

PS: The new tar has a src/daemon/selection_copy.c~ in it.
