Hi
I observe a bug with the latest Vim-7.2.42 (huge) on Linux x86.
It's not recently introduced since I can reproduce at least with
Vim-7.1.314 which comes with Ubuntu-8.10. It only happens in
a terminal (gvim does not seem affected).
Steps to reproduce:
1/ start Vim in a terminal (xterm or gnome-terminal) with: vim -u NONE
2/ enter INSERT mode with: i
3/ select (into clipboard) a few lines of text with the mouse from
another terminal
4/ paste those selected lines with the mouse into Vim (middle click)
5/ visual select all text with and reformat with: <Esc>1GVGgq
6/ delete everything with: :%d
7/ enter insert mode again with: i
8/ paste same again text still in clipboard with the mouse (middle click)
Observe that after pasting test in step 8/, Vim either crashes with:
Vim: Caught deadly signal ABRT
Vim: preserving files...
.. or sometimes Vim just misbehaves (hangs or not longer accepts all
keystrokes for example). Sometimes the text is not inserted at all
when pasting the second time at step 8/.
Running the same test with Valgrind, I see errors 100% of the times
but so far I did not find how to fix them:

Does anybody else see that bug too?
