Looks as if I haven't retried the GTK1 build for a while, and recent
GTK frontend development has broken it. The selection revamp has
pointed out that GTK1 didn't have the accessor function
gtk_selection_data_get_selection(), the standard GdkAtom value
GDK_SELECTION_CLIPBOARD, or keysyms for alphabetic characters; and
also I had an initialisation of one of my own structure fields
(dp->selparams) accidentally not guarded by the same GTK-versioning
ifdef that controls whether or not it was defined.
