It's also the tired old Latin-1 code for the character, so this may
not be at all significant.

FWIW I've had trouble pasting between Mozilla and Emacs for as long as
I can remember (which is about two years -- before that I wasn't using
Mozilla, or Gnome). Currently this is Emacs 20.7.2 and Mozilla 1.3.1.
This Mozilla is using GTK 1.2 as far as I can tell. (I'm running Gnome
1.something -- Debian stable with some Ximian residue and backports,
notably Mozilla.)
