Oh why, didn't I see this? I feel so stupid. Yes that is basically what
happens. end_global_changes() calls clip_gen_set_selection() which
clears the clipboard, which it shouldn't when starting up.
I couldn't reproduce it, because I usually run vim from it's built
directory, and in this case the netrw plugin wasn't executed...
