Emacs clipboard malfunction and hanging with x2x

[Gian Uberto Lauri]

Symptoms:

On two debian systems, tron and paperoga.

I create  a frame  from tron on  paperoga's display  (paperoga:0) with
make-frame-on-display.  I  control paperoga  with  x2x  with a  single
keyboard/mouse set hooked to tron.

I select a section of text on paperoga, do M-w and then try to paste it
in a frame in tron, the kill ring seems to miss my last copy and inserts
the previous one (made on tron).

Then I try to user  X clipboard (select and middlebutton) that usually
works with x2x and emacs freezes.

(I use x2x so I can use an old laptop as second screen and host for
auxiliary task such as e-mail).
