It might not be that clear cut. X11's clipboard system is a bit messy and it is very difficult to get things wrong. E.g. firefox tends to be a horrible buggy mess when it comes to clipboard. So at this point I'd sum things up as gvim/konsole and FLTK have compatibility problems. Someone will have to investigate the details before blame can be assigned. So in short, I don't find it unreasonable to file bugs against those other programs (as well as against TigerVNC and/or FLTK).
