 I don't know what the Gtk clipboard might be. On my system, + is for 
 whatever is used for Edit = Copy, Edit = Cut and Edit = Paste in 
 any X11 programs regardless of whether or not they are using Gtk widgets 
 (Konqueror, for instance, uses Qt widgets and it has access to that same 
 clipboard). I don't use the * register but I've been told it's used by 
 middle-mouse pasting.

On my system, + is for the Gtk clipboard, * is for the X clipboard.

Subtle difference.

Gtk and Qt share this clipboard then. Cool.
