If you think it's clipboard related, try running with -noclipboard and see

Duh, I should have though of that.  Where do these settings reside
now, since I'm no longer starting XWin using the batch file?
I think you have to modify the shortcut (or run the command from a terminal) to add extra command-line options.

BTW, what do you use x11 for? Other than the odd gnuplot session, I've not
needed an X server since switching from xterm to mintty (which just became
the official cygwin terminal).
All my "work" work is X-based, I'm super-comfortable with the
interface, for example, using the mouse for copy/paste which is a
little more awkward in mintty.  Plus I love Xemacs.
Eh? Mouse copy/paste in mintty is identical to xterm AFAIK... select = copy, middle button = paste. If you're in a mouse-using terminal app you have to hold down [shift] but that's the same in xterm, I think.

Re xemacs: fair enough. I mostly stick with emacs + xt-mouse because of slow/unreliable network connections to the servers I do most of my work on.
