btw. i have tried it with running gpbs and the delay seems to be not because of 
crashed gpbs, gpbs was still running. Here is the output:

2003-08-08 16:37:06.211 gpbs[382] <PasteboardObject: 80658e8> get data for type
'NSStringPboardType' version 3
2003-08-08 16:37:06.212 gpbs[382] Owning program failed to convert data.
2003-08-08 16:37:26.219 gpbs[382] Timed out waiting for X selection

I have tried with different X apps, and all do the same, so this problem is not 
dependent on some particuliar X app. Moreover, all this worked fine some time 
ago.
