I think that this is a good answer why the "copy to clipboard on select" option is off by default. That is just not how other applications use the X buffers. With this option off, my observation is that wxMaxima does not put selections into the PRIMARY buffer (like all other applications do) but CTRL-C puts selections into the CLIPBOARD buffer (like all other applications). But this is still different from your observation that CTRL-C doesn't do anything at all. I'll ask upstream about this.
