Not really, it just means that Mozilla sets both PRIMARY (Unix select/middle-click keyboard) and CLIPBOARD(Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V clipboard) while KDE only sets CLIPBOARD ; both behaviosr look in line with the clipboard behavior agreement to me (see http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/clipboards.txt); the reson this doesn't matter in HEAD is that you can configure the clipboard code in kdelibs to set PRIMARY on CLIPBOARD being set, AFAIK.
