0. Start Emacs using `emacs -Q'.

1. Open some other X application (gedit, GNOME Terminal, etc.) and enter
    the following text:

        Проба

2. Select the text using the mouse and yank it using mouse-2 in a
    scratch buffer in Emacs.

3. The result is:

        \u041f\u0440\u043e\u0431\u0430

    instead of the expected:

        Проба
