This appears to be fixed, at least from a test I did, in the current CVS
tree.  Gilbert made a couple of changes to "file.c" that dealt with
selection and the effects of same; the most obvious one doesn't appear
to change the code that handles the hex dump window, but perhaps it
indirectly fixed the problem, or perhaps the problem wasn't what I
suspect it might be.
