In GNU Emacs 19.25.1 of Fri Jun 10 1994 on orac (sparc-sun-sunos4.1.1)

When I use drag-mouse-left and cut text from another X window, or an
emacs buffer, then do click-mouse-left to set point where I want to
insert cut text, then hit mouse-middle to paste, the text often ends
up at some other odd location in the buffer.  Somehow,
click-mouse-left is not setting point the way emacs-18 versions worked
with the "fix-x-mouse.el" patch.  Is there an equivalent patch for
emacs-19, so that click-mouse-left followed by click-mouse-middle will
set point and paste text there?
