GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386--freebsd, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
1. Set mark (Ctrl-Space)
2. Go to the end of the region to copy
3. Press Ctrl-Ins.
In Gnome terminal `emacs -nw` Ctrl-Ins generates: 5~
In X Window based `emacs` it does not generate any guarbage, but it
does not copy text into global buffer.
4. Go to gedit and press Shift-Ins. Paste did not work.
Repeat the same steps on Windows XP machine and it will work just fine.
