That's how I use Vim, too.  My pasting works fine, like yours used
to.  I compared by version information with yours and I didn't see
any X- or mouse-related differences that I thought were relevant.
I'll list the differences below anyway.  My Vim is also 7.2.411.

    $ xterm -version
    X.Org 6.8.2(225)

How about the setting of 'mouse'?  Mine is

    :set mouse?
    mouse=a
