Um. Copy some text in notepad.exe, then hit mouse-2 in emacs.exe, then 
C-y, hopefully you'll see the problem. Or maybe you'll decide it's a 
feature.

e.g.

"I am a fish" select it then M-w copy in emacs

"hello there" select it then C-c copy in notepad

mouse-2 in emacs =>
"hello there" inserted in emacs (inserting the current w32 clipboard)

C-y in emacs =>
"I am a fish" inserted in emacs (not inserting the current w32 clipboard 
but rather the head of emacs kill ring. I would have expected the 
current w32 clipboard, as an x11 user).

C-v in notepad =>
"hello there" inserted in notepad (inserting the current w32 clipboard)



*** Then there's:

"I am a duck" select it in emacs

"goodbye then" C-c copy in notepad

mouse-2 in emacs =>
"goodbye then" inserted in emacs (inserting the current w32 clipboard)

mouse-2 in emacs =>
"I am a duck" inserted in emacs (inserting the emacs emulated primary 
selection)

C-v in notepad =>
"goodbye then" inserted in notepad (inserting the current w32 clipboard)
