For what it's worth, and notwithstanding the need for deeper analysis and a

I can report that, disabling the Office clipboard

I'm running Office 2007, I have been using Excel to toggle the Windows
clipboard.
I have not noticed any difference related

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).
I don't think this is a valid test.

Thanks very much for this information on the clipboard problems. I've
been able to reproduce something similar to the problems you describe,
so I will spend some time trying to fix it.
I've looked into this a bit and it seems to me that the patch in [1] can
interact badly

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,

Phil,
Thanks for hanging in there and trying your best to help identify my
problem.
If I ever find the solution I will shout it from the mountain top!
I'd like to try cygwin-x on another Windows PC with less software installed
but my company's network is configured to block unknown MAC
