Problem with second-sel.el

I am trying to trace an annoying bug regarding secondary selection.
The problem occurs on a number of places in my settings if I have
second-sel.el in my load path otherwise it does not.

For example the following happens when nxhtml is loaded:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "No `SECONDARY' selection")
x-get-selection-internal(SECONDARY STRING)
x-get-selection(SECONDARY)
(and (fboundp (quote x-get-selection)) (x-get-selection (quote
SECONDARY)) (not buffer-read-only))
message("Loading %%s (source)...done" "/home/per/pnw/emacs/nxhtml/etc/
schema/schema-path-patch.el")
load-with-code-conversion("/home/per/pnw/emacs/nxhtml/etc/schema/
schema-path-patch.el" "/home/per/pnw/emacs/nxhtml/etc/schema/schema-
path-patch.el" nil nil)
load("/home/per/pnw/emacs/nxhtml/etc/schema/schema-path-patch.el"
nil nil t)
load-file("/home/per/pnw/emacs/nxhtml/etc/schema/schema-path-
patch.el")

Per! You should know that by now. ;-)

Menu: Help > Send Bug Report...

Keyboard: M-x report-emacs-bug

And the Emacs manual tells you so:
C-h i, choose Emacs
`i' bug TAB, choose `bugs' takes you to Reporting Bugs

I recommend reading Reporting Bugs to everyone who hasn't
(and to some who have). ;-)
