Run the attached program. Click on the JTabbedPane tabs until all the panes are
visible. Finish preparation by clicking on the tab "Swing JTextFields".
Twenty different JTextFields are in this pane. They are arranged in 4 columns
and 5 rows.

Copy the language String from the command line (or any other Arabic from
an X-terminal). Paste it into one of the JTextFields. Nothing happens.
Copy and paste English text and all is well.

Attached a (pretty stupid and simple) code JT.java. It's much smaller than
FontTest.java.
(1) Give JT's JFrame focus. Type Ctrl-Space so that the Arabic input method
    is activated.
(2) Type Arabic into JT's JTextField.
(3) Select the new Arabic text. Hit the sparc "Copy" button.
(4) Go to a native X-window, give it focus. Type Ctrl-Space so that the Arabic
    input method is activated. Hit the sparc "Paste" button.
    The Arabic will be copied. But there will be a Latin character at the
    end of the paste.
(5) Return to the JTextField. Select and delete the Arabic. Type some
    new Arabic in. Select the new Arabic using the left mouse button.
(6) Go to the native X-window, give it focus, and paste the Arabic using
    the middle mouse button. The Arabic will be copied. But there will be
    a Latin character at the end of the paste.
(7) Return to JT. Delete the text there.
(8) Go to the native X-window, give it focus, and enter some Arabic text.
    Use the left mouse button to select. Hit the sparc "Copy" button.
(9) Return to JT. Hit the sparc "Paste" button. Nothing will happen.
(10) Delete the text in JT.
(11) Return to the X-window. Enter some Arabic text. Use the left mouse
    button to select.
(12) Return to JT. Hit the middle mouse button. Nothing happens.

Danila Sinopalnikov (###@###.###) sent a utility dumpsel.c that dumps
the contents of the clipboard on demand. It has been attached. The results
are attached to this bug report, too -- in the file arabic_8.sel.
