I have to add that I too no longer have this problem. I copy and paste back and forth all the time. Admittedly I use mostly the xterm and vi but even our own software, which we are running under X11, has no problem with this.
To go X11 - Aqua I just use the normal command-C/Command-V.

One of the problems I have with this is that most of the time Command-C in X11 applications - even in a simple xterm - does stictly nothing. A subsequent Command-V in Aqua will paste whatever was in the paste buffer before. Often, but not always, choosing the Edit->Copy menu entry (which is supposed to be the same as Command- C) works when Command-C does not.

I am not sure it is good to restart this unusually active thread, but I just wanted to point out that I have found that I can always "fix" (at least for a while) the Command-C in X11 not copying by doing a Command-C copy in an Aqua window and then going back to X11. This seems to reset something.
