I posted a C & P observation re Panther and X11 last night (see the

X11 apps. Today I was unable to C & P between OS X aops (Mail and
Safari), so perhaps it's not particular to X11. This was using mouse
buttons 1 and 2. However, option click still pasted properly.
But so far no one has chimed in with a "me too", so I don't know what
to say.

Okay, here is your "me too." ;-)
My middle mouse button (paste) stopped working in X11, and left me in
quite a conundrum. It seems mouse related to me, as usually the middle
mouse button opens a link in a new tab in Safari. Except it didn't
work there either; I had to use the cmd- modifier to get the links to
open in new tabs.
I really did not spend much time troubleshooting, though. I rebooted
my panther and all was well. The only hint was a *huge* list of errors
in the windowserver.log (in /var/log) file.
Good, thanks for the confirmation, although it appears to be more of a
Panther problem. Another thing to note (which I omitted to keep the
original problem report simple) is that data copied with B1 and that
would not paste, sometimes spontaneously appears - minutes later - in
some other (random?) window.
One thing I mean to do when the problem re-occurs, is to do a FUS and
see if the new user also "sees" the problem.
