Sorry, but I'm really not hallucinating. It works here.
I don't actually doubt you -- I was quoting "The Princess Bride" for
humorous effect.  :-)
I'm not really humor-impaired.... just slower today than other days.. :)


It was a bit obscure, sorry...

The only additional thing I can think of is choice of window manager. I use vtwm, which is pretty low-rent (basically twm with virtual desktop capabilities) and pretty old. My (possibly faulty) understanding is that some newer window and desktop managers (kde, gnome, xfce, others?) do not use the same cut/paste buffers as the old-time WMs. I also have WindowMaker and fvwm2 installed, but neither of them is exactly bleeding edge, either. Next time I need to restart X11, I can try one of them and see if I get different behavior.

Aha! I of course use quartz-wm, which is the default and I'll bet it's what most others use. We may have a major clue here. You said you had a vanilla set up, dang it! :-) Or, should I say, thank goodness, as it might contain an answer!
