The current trunk is back to hanging forever in this scenario. Test
case:
$ emacs -Q
Then select some text with the mouse and then `C-z' in the shell to stop
the Emacs.
Then start a new "emacs -Q" and use mouse-2 to paste. Emacs will now
hang forever (until you hit C-g). So it seems like things have possibly
regressed a bit, since it used to heed x-selection-timeout?
Perhaps Po has some insights here; added to the CCs.
