I have vim/gvim 7.1.330 and I entered the following three lines of text:

this is just a small testA
and this is another line
and so is this

Then highlighted those lines with the left mouse button and then pasted 
into x5250 using the middle mouse button.  No crash.  We're on the same 
versions of tn5250/x5250 so I think we can rule out version discrepancies 
there.  How are you doing your copy/paste?  Middle mouse button or some 
desktop feature like control-c or something like that (never did like 
those keystrokes for copy/paste personally so I don't know what they are). 
If you're using some keystroke combination then I'm wondering if the 
desktop environment is a factor.  I feel like I'm grasping at straws 
though.

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
