The problem seems to be solved:
I installed the test package:
nedit 5.6cvs20081118-2
and
openmotif4 /openmotif4-shlibs 2.3.2-1
First test's:
copy paste into one window;
from one to the other;
column copy and paste;
from other applications into nedit
without any problem.
I did not disable any option of X11 2.4.0,
only
Update Pasteboard immediately when new text is selected
is disabled (I think that is the default option)
Thank you Jack - well done.
I hope somebody else can verify those results.
P.
PS:
your question concerning:
lesstif-0.95.0-1 and nedit-5.5-1
working is:
nedit 5.5-2
lesstif-shlibs 0.95.0-1
together with X11 2.4.0 - options as above

I have updated lesstif to fix error upstream when
the debian 64-bit patches were applied (missing braces).
However this is only part of the fix. It eliminates the
bus errors in nedit but the copy/paste seems non-functional.
I have created updated nedit packaging using the same
nedit-5.6-cvs20081118 tarball that debian sid is using.
This seems to work fine under i386 and x86_64 fink as
long as the option Update Pasteboard when clipboard
changes option has been disabled in the X11 2.4.0
preferences. Please test.

Is anyone using the older lesstif-0.95.0-1 and nedit-5.5-1 packages
from fink unstable? Do you have any issues with pasting? In my hands,
these packages seem to often silently refuse to paste under X11 2.4.0
without bus errors. If I disable Update Pasteboard when
CLIPBOARD changes, pasting works. Under nedit 5.6-cvs20081118 the
Update Pasteboard when CLIPBOARD changes option when enabled
triggers
an error message XmClipboardInquireLength() failed: clipboard locked
instead of silently failing. Is everyone having to disable this option
to paste under nedit with Xquartz?
