I can copy out of Terminal or TextEdit and then paste into an xterm
under X Windows.  So I cat to a file ~/blah, paste into that, and then
insert that file into an emacs buffer.  (Or, if it is only one line
long, I paste it into an xterm, cut something in emacs, copy from the
xterm, and paste into emacs.  I'm not sure why I have to cut something
first in emacs.)

Annoying, but it works.
