Oops, you're right, it doesn't. Ctl-y should work though.
It _is_ possible to a limited extent to get Mac-like behavior with the
command key. You can do this by making command be alt (and option be
meta), and then binding cut&paste functions to alt-v, alt-x, alt-c etc.
But this is in some ways worse than nothing, since it behaves a little
like MacOS but not that much. Better just to put your emacs hat on when
you run emacs and forget about the underlying platform altogether...
