Changes
=======

1) InitOutput.c, win.h, winclipboardthread.c, winwndproc.c - Remove
the winDeinitClipboard function since it is no longer needed due to
the OsVendorReset function.  (Harold L Hunt II)

2) winclipboardxevents.c/winClipboardFlushXEvents - Move variable
declarations into the event loop so that they are reinitialized for
each event that is processed.  Remove all calls to pthread_exit and
replace them with an abort section in each event that frees allocated
resources and sends a SelectionNotify message when the
SelectionRequest event is being aborted.  Make sure that
CloseClipboard will always be called if OpenClipboard has been called.
Review the entire function to make sure that the responses to failures
are appropriate.  The result of this audit is that the clipboard code
should not shut down as often from encountering minor errors.  (Harold
L Hunt II)
