Perhaps for selections, but I was looking into wierd results for the
WM_NAME and WM_ICON_NAME properties.  (My patch to also set the _NET
version in the non-GTK case --- just like GTK already does --- fixes
that for window managers which support the _NET properties, but mine
does not, yet.)  For that, the c code explicitly uses compound-text,
not compound-text-with-extensions.

That difference may explain why I was unable to duplicate the issue
with selections.

So perahps the fix is to use the -wiht-extensions variation in
x_set_name_internal()?
