Yes, this is because Emacs now copies to the clipboard only text that
is copied to the kill ring.

Was this possible in Emacs 23? If so, how?
When I double-click mouse-1 in Emacs 23 to select a word, I can then
yank that word with C-y, and `(car kill-ring)' evaluates to that
word. So I'm quite sure mouse-drag-copy-region non-nil does the same
as what you had in Emacs 23 and older.

No, it's a different bug. This one was filed against my promise that
mouse-drag-copy-region will get you back the ability to get back the
behavior of Emacs 23 on Windows when you select text by
double-clicking mouse-1. This now works exactly as it did in Emacs 23
(AFAICS), so any further complaints about mouse selections should be
in a separate bug.
