A new 'test' version has been posted with many changes to the clipboard
support.

The new version includes more fixes for ensuring that CloseClipboard is 
always closed and fixes to send a SelectionNotify event when aborting 
from a SelectionRequest event.  The clipboard code has also been further 
cleaned up.  This release was made to get a stable point from which to 
start fooling with the final remaining item to be completed for the 
clipboard code:

3) [Hard] Release ownership of the X11 selections if an unsupported
format is copied to the Win32 clipboard.  It will be difficult to do
this without triggering infinite loops in our code that monitors changes
in ownership of the X11 selection.  It is, however, quite possible to do.

Note: The item #2 that I listed previously does not seem possible, so I 
am dropping it for now.
