I'm not familiar with cua mode (never used it), but a quick search told me about this global mark. I suppose that cua-mode does some tricks to catch certain key-strokes. And these may very well interfer with evil. To get it work one would probably have to disable the global mark temporarily during normal-state and only activate the mark in insert state. I think this is possible but because I'm, as I said, not familiar with cua I do not have an immediate solution. Perhaps someone else (Vegard?) knows better.
I've given it more tries, and it seems I was confused: the global mark works as expected with inserted text. It's with yanking or killing text that it does not work. As requested by Vegard and you, I'll open an issue. Thanks, Alan
