I think I encountered this once on the 0.7 release, but I've not seen anything like this using the CVS nightly build from about end of year 2003.

Also, the reported problem (unable to copy/paste to another app) seems to have been a one-time thing; can't recreate the problem now.

The only other problem is occasionally with printing - FB just goes poof, I presume segfault.  This has been less frequent since running the CVS nightly build.
