I have seen this happen when trying to paste from mutt running in an aterm
into psi, a jabber client that uses QT.  It's quite strange: only 4
characters are successfully pasted into psi.  However, if I cut from mutt,
the paste into a normal aterm, then recut and paste into psi, all goes well.
This happened in more situations than with mutt alone, but always with psi
as paste target.

However: since I've started trying out KDE 3.0 (before I was using either
pwm, icewm, fvwm or windowmaker), this behaviour has gone away.  It could
also be because my psi was upgraded in the process of the KDE upgrade.

I do believe this is a QT problem.  If anyone is interested, I could
probably try to reproduce the behaviour.
