Using a Vim that is built to be able to access X's PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD
selections (i.e., "* and "+), performing “:let &term=&term” causes Vim
to "forget" that it knows how to access those registers.
This is because set_termname() ends up calling clip_init(), which sets
owned = FALSE on both VimClipboard instances.
I'm not sure why changing &term should be modifying the state of the
clipboard at all, so the attached patch removes that bit of the code,
resolving the bug.
Cheers,
