Unfortunately, I also don't have access to a system with both X and the CVS version of Emacs. Does this still happen with the current CVS? If it does, could you please see what does (x-selection-exists-p 'PRIMARY) return? Also, does x_handle_selection_request (defined on xselect.c) get called when you paste into another X application, and if so, could you step with a debugger through it and see what happens inside x_handle_selection_request and its subroutines that prevents pasting from working?
