couldn't see if you got an answer to this but I just found out that you 
can do it (in fedora/xfce anyway)  You select text you want to copy in 
xterm, move focus to where you want to paste it and then press mouse 
button 5 on my logitech mouse, so just press all mouse buttons on your 
mouse, one will probably/possibly (at a guess) paste text.
