This therefore points to a subtle bug in Xiphos, one that has not
been
encountered before.
Not by necessity.
1) Facebook is very buggy and known to be buggy. Facebook mangling
posts
would not surprise me.
2) It could be something with your specific clipboard.
Additional software in the same stack: GTK1 as modified/used by FF,
GTK used by Xiphos, GTKHTML, Firefox, Gecko, Windows. Maybe others I'm
missing?
Unicode is notoriously sticky for programs to handle because there is
never a guarantee other programs understand it or understand the same
version and encoding you're using. And many popular software tools
simply aren't Unicode aware in the first place or have limited support
or require Unicode data to be handled differently and with different
APIs.

There are many more thousands of users of facebook than of Xiphos.
It's unlikely that facebook would have not had a report filed &
fixed if
this was their software bug.
See above.
So far no one has been able to reproduce it. I will try later on
Windows
if I get round to it.
