left-fringe no longer groks mouse-2 or mouse-3 patch

[Doug Maxey]

It seems that I can no longer use the fringe to mark and cut a text
region, or to paste using the left fringe.

As I have lost some of the ability to see the *exact* point where the
cut and paste are being done, the left fringe was a great place to cut and
paste from.

A little searching got me to the patch posted on emacs-pretest-bugs,
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-pretest-bug/2006-11/msg00223.html
and inspired me to spin up a little patch of my own
