AFAIK this is an XFree86-only extension.  As of X11R6.4 such
extensions were forbidden in X.org Compound Text Encoding.  Is it
really a good idea?

On the other hand, even if extended segments are ugly, we must support
extended segments to handle ISO-8859-15 selections on XFree86.  At
least it is a standard mechanism on all versions of X, going back to
at least X11R5.
