Thanks for sending in the patch. I applied it with some minor changes:
* the clipboard atom has to be requested via XInternAtom
* xstrdup instead of strdup
* the primary selection could be empty when someone is asking to copy
to the clipboard
* the SelectionClear X11 event is now a comment so someone too
passionate about it can remove the comment
Sincerely,
Christoph Lohmann
