Sorry to be obtuse, but how do I file a bug report with Apple again?
Thank you.
I would be shocked actually if this wasn't yet filed, as it has been
mentioned on this list numerous times.

You are quite right. XEmacs appears to hijack the X CLIPBOARD.
Actually, it appears that X11.app screws clipboard handling in
general, with respect to -c after explicit set of X CLIPBOARD. Its
understandable how this can get messed up, the whole
PRIMARY/SECONDARY/CLIPBOARD issue is ugly and confusing.
I've never run into this problem, but now that you've pointed it out
I'm wondering how I've overlooked it... Basically, any (XEmacs, GNOME
or KDE) explicit set of the X CLIPBOARD disables -c temporarily...
That's Bad™
File a bug or feedback.
As I mentioned before, your best bet may be to use something like
xcutsel or autocutsel (These both work inside X, to merge the PRIMARY
and CLIPBOARD buffers) until Apple fixes this.
