bug#4484: 23.1.50; Null Byte Yank on Mac OS X

[Alex Schröder]

In GNU Emacs 23.1.50.2 (i386-apple-darwin8.11.1, NS apple-appkit-824.48)
 of 2009-07-30 on Pyrobombus.local
Windowing system distributor `Apple', version 10.3.824
configured using `configure  '--with-ns''

Try this: t e s t C-q 0 RET y o C-a C-k C-y -- this should print test^@yo, go back, kill it all, and yank it. But on my system it only yanks "test" -- the null byte ends it all.

A quick question on #emacs revealed that some other people had the same problem and all of them were using Emacs.app with the GUI on OSX. One user with a 2009-05-11 version using a GUI reported that it works, but my version from 2009-07-30 does not. Another user with version 23.0.96.1 reported a fail as well.

Cheers
Alex
