Maybe it's something similar, I don't know.

Given this:

abcdabcdabcdabcdabcdabcdabcd\n
abcd\n
abcdabcdabcdabcd\n

Left-button-select and Middle-button paste with 4.2.0 worked
reliably into for example emacs.

With 4.3.0 the \n is replaced with gobs of spaces instead and
all I get is one super long line instead of 3 lines.
