I also once believed it to be a VNC bug. But when I found that it
also happens without VNC, and it only happens with Emacs, I know it's
Emacs's problem.

It's amazing that you have observed so many things. I've been
frustrated by this problem for years. (I'm sure Emacs 19.34 never had
this problem. Maybe neither did Emacs 20.* -- I'm not sure. Emacs
21.* always have this problem.)
If I have found the patterns, I would have come up with workarounds
and also reported the bug. Since I haven't been able to confidently
reproduce the misbehaviour, I refrain from filing a bug report.

I've also discovered this workaround.
Strangely, Emacs to Emacs cut&paste seems to work all the time, even
with multilingual text, as long as the text is not too long. (I wish
the multilingual cut&paste also work between Mozilla and Emacs.)
