To paste text into X11, use the middle mouse button (or option-click).
Copying from x11 to Mac apps works fine for me, unless I am pasting
DESELECTED text from an xterm in X11 *exactly as described*, which it
doesn't sound like you're doing.

I wasn't running anything in X11 at the moment, so I shut it down and
restarted. Worked fine.
I *can't* however copy from another app and use Cmd-V to paste into
an X11 app. It just beeps at me if I try, and the Paste item on the
Edit menu is disabled. The only things on the Edit menu which are
enabled are Copy and Special Characters, the later of which pops up
the character pallette but trying to Insert doesn't do anything. I
would expect at least some kind of X event, but xev doesn't report
anything.
This is with X11 1.1.3 running Mac OS 10.4.9 on an Intel Core Duo.
