Selecting region & setting point with mouse at left border |

Hi,
when a proportional font is chosen and fringe-mode is off and I have a
line of text that begins with a narrow glyph (character) such as '(' or
'i', it is almost always impossible to define the selection
(click+drag) with the mouse by moving the cursor to the left hand side
over that character or by dragging it to the left of the frame.
I can reproduce this with a current (today) CVS build on Mac OS X
10.3.9 by choosing a lucida 14pt font (as defined in AquaMacs) and
using any elisp code in a buffer (with lots of opening parens on the
left) and making sure that (fringe-mode 0).
mouse-sel-mode doesn't seem to make a difference.
When I set pc-selection-mode to nil, I can see that I can't even move
the point to the left border to the left of the narrow character, so
setting the point with the mouse looks like the culprit to me.
Thanks
Dave
