[Bug] [7.9.1] [Linux] Prim 975 fails opening find dialog

Martin McClure-3
When the clipboard contains a long string, opening a find dialog fails
with "a primitive has failed" on Linux. This does not fail on Windows.

To reproduce in a virgin 7.9.1 image:

In a workspace, inspect this:

| string |
string := '123 '.
12 timesRepeat: [string := string, string].
^string

In the inspector for the resulting 16K ByteString, type ctrl-A to select
all, ctrl-C to copy, and ctrl-F to find.

Walkback.

Fails on both Gentoo and Ubuntu Precise 12.04.

Regards,

-Martin
