The old defaults didn't do that either. So you need to (notionally) revert to the old defaults as given, then reapply your customisations, which shouldn't be hard in this case: I believe the difference is kust that you operated with both x-select-enable-primary and x-select-enable-clipboard turned on at once, which causes x-cut-buffer-or-selection-value to try to be "clever". (Note I wanted the settings all boolean customisations was because it would become possible to use an "old x11 defaults" customization theme with them - bindings aren't included in customization themes).
