Similar problems using current trunk on RHEL6.2 under XFCE 4.8:
emacs -Q
C-SPC M-< M-w
C-x C-c
Emacs sits there for 20 seconds before exiting, then prints
Error saving to X clipboard manager.
If the problem persists, set `x-select-enable-clipboard-manager' to nil.
in the terminal.
I've never seen another application pause in this way before exiting.
This keeps bugging me when I use `emacs -Q' to test things.
I can't even set x-selection-timeout to something small via
X resources, because -Q ignores those. :(
