(defvar x-symbol-nomule-mouse-yank-function
  (and-boundp 'mouse-yank-function mouse-yank-function)
  ...)

And similarly for any other missing symbols.

As I understand it, when Mule is available, x-symbol creates private
characters and character sets, and can rely on XEmacs to put point in the
right place when people paste with the mouse. When Mule is not available, it
has to do this itself.
