Now, I run ""strace -oLOG /usr/bin/mcedit NEWFILE""
and paste selected text.

First two lines get concatenated together, the separating newline is gone.

I am attaching the LOG.

It seems to be a timing issue - without strace, sometimes all lines get jammed together into one long line, or tow lines, sometimes the line is not printed - it seems to be filled with spaces until I input yet another char.

This happens on current git. It happens for versions from last several weeks or more."	defect	closed	major	4.7	mc-core	4.7.0-pre4	duplicate					no branch
