I'm not sure if this is platform or X-server dependent. But I have to
add that in the past few years, I've been working on XFree86/Linux.
XFree86 versions 3.6, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2. Linux versions 2.2, 2.4. Most
of the time, Emacs is run on Linux (multiple Emacs processes from the
same or different machines), but also occasionally remote (even from
another continent) from Solaris and AIX.

Isn't the "ctext" sort of standard in X11R6? I've tried many settings
with M-x set-clipping-coding-system, and never got it work with
pasting Chinese (big5) from Mozilla.
