Copy/paste & delete bugs

I've found two problems with Abiword, one minor and the other more
serious.

The first relates to GNOME, and it's cross-application copy/paste
capability. Normally, to copy between applications, one selects the text
in the source application, then middle-clicks in the destination
application to paste. However, when this is done from Abiword, a newline
is always inserted at the end of the pasted selection, even if the
original selection did not include a newline.

The second problem relates to deleting text from Abiword. When the last
few lines of a document (doesn't seem to do this with just the last line)
are selected and the delete key pressed, the lines are deleted on-screen
as normal, then Abiword immediately crashes with a segmentation fault. I
have a number of documents so far that exibit this behaviour; not all
documents cause it.
