I don't know what happened, but copy/paste (either using CMD-C or the

Copy and paste from / to X11 works here just fine. Only sometimes
(very seldom) pasting something from OS X to X11 fails, but then
I just retry and mark again and press Command-C and pasting in
X11 works with the middle mouse button (or depending on the
application with Ctrl-v).
I did just try a few thins the other way around and all of them
are working:
- marking some text in X11 (and keep it marked) and then
Command-V in an OS X window
- marking some other text in X11 and then just clicked somewhere
else in the same X11 window so the text is not marked anymore and
then did Command-V in an OS X window
- marking some other text in X11 and pressed Command-C,
deselected and pressed Command-V on OS X window
Could it be, that you are using some 3rd party software, which
gives you additional features to the pasteboard / clipboard? E.g.
something which can manage several pasteboard entries. Eventually
something like this does interfere with the OS X / X11 copy and
paste.
