It seems likely that this clipboard contention between multiple applications
might behave differently on machines with multi-core processors (which I
don't have the capability to test on), so can you indicate if you are using
single-core or multi-core processor?
Indeed, I'm using a dual core machine.
However, in an attempt to test your hypothesis, I've set the affinity
of XWin.exe, emacs, and the vncviewer to only use CPU0 (through the
task manager).
This had no positive affect on the problem: the instant I highlighted
some text within emacs my copy-paste functionality was dead,
regardless of affinity.

FWIW, I'm having a similar proble with MinTTY. If I select text in a
MinTTY window,
then copy text withing a GUI app, like TextPad (http://textpad.com),
clipboard stops
working for all apps.
If I ten return to the original, MinTTY window, and reselect text, paste
it, that works and
then copy and paste work in all apps, again.
