copy/paste from X11 to OS X is no longer working

I don't know what happened, but copy/paste (either using CMD-C or the
menus) has, in the last few days, stopped working.  I can copy from OS X
apps to X11 apps, but not the other way around.  Settings in X11 prefs
are:

[x] Enable syncinbg
[x] Update Pasteboard when CLIPBOARD changes
[x] Update CLIPBOARD when Pasteboard changes
[x] Update PRIMARY (middle-click) when Pasteboard changes
[ ] Update Pasteboard immediately when new text is selected

If there are any other settings I should be looking at, please let me
know and I'll post them as well.

Any idea what's wrong here?  I need this FAR too often to allow it to not
work....  Is there a work-around?  When I had a mickeysoft box, and was
running X in Cygwin to work in my FreeBSD system, I had a pair of Tcl
scripts which passed data between the X11 and windows clipboards...can I
do something similar here (assuming it isn't already done, that is)?

Thanks,
