I doubt the situation could cause a freeze --- see the description in the first post. \
The freeze could have been caused if qtclipboard was less-than-perfect in updating \
the timestamp that the xclipboard uses to determine which clipboard actions are \
obsolete. 

Still, both patches are good (the noblock is my favorite), and removes an annoying \
warning that cost me a full day of determining what was wrong with my additions to \
Klipper --- just to discover that the bug had existed all along :-/

> From a bug-hunting perspective, the bug #82470 could be freeze problem, and this \
> one the warning. Note that the noblock does not only remove a warning, it also \
> removes the line
1.85         (pfeiffer 01-Mar-02):     clip->blockSignals( true ); // ### this might \
break other kicker applets I'm not sure what pfeiffer /meant/ when he wrote that, but \
it is a worrisome comment.
