Bug in 26.1 related to X clipboard and `yank'?

Hello,

Here is a recipe that almost but not always reproduces the potential
bug.

;; Start a server and open a client frame
1. emacs -Q  --daemon
2. emacsclient -nc
;; Open a second Emacs (not client/daemon)
3. emacs -Q
4. From some application other than Emacs, copy text to the X clipboard.
5. Yank the text from the clipboard somewhere in the client frame (this works).
6. Add some text somewhere in the second Emacs frame and run `kill-ring-save' 
to put it on the X clipboard.
7. ** Ruining `yank' in the client frame does not yank the text on the X 
clipboard. **

I do not recall this being a problem in previous versions, but I cannot
say for certain.  Is this bug-report worthy?

Joseph
