Hi all,

I noticed today that trying to cut and paste between an xterm and a 
remote desktop session causes the remote desktop to hang with a CPU 
pegged. I have vague memories of this sort of thing happening before 
(but with a VNC client causing the problem instead of rdtsc.exe). The 
fix then was to install Jon Turney's hacked version of xwin.exe [1], but 
that binary targeted v1.5 and I'm running v1.7 now...

Thoughts?
Ryan
