Clipboard sometimes removes linefeeds

Two more items:

- If I disable the clipboard (remove -clipboard from when launching XWin),
line feeds are still removed when I paste into Emacs.
This goes for Emacs.exe under CygWin and "ssh -X emacs" to my Linux box.

- The function call below that I referred to in my previous post was in 
winclipboardxevents.c  ca. line 540



	  /* Request the selection data */
	  iReturn = XGetWindowProperty (pDisplay,
					iWindow,
					atomLocalProperty,
					0,
					ulReturnBytesLeft,
					False,
					AnyPropertyType,
					&xtpText.encoding,
					&xtpText.format,
					&xtpText.nitems,
					&ulReturnBytesLeft,
					&xtpText.value);
