Look in the X11 server log file for error messages after you experience 
a
failed paste.

I see something like that inside nedit.

    http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2013-06/msg00000.html

The crash problem in that post was resolved with a later version of the 
X11 server, but
the paste and window degradation problems are still around.

I hardly ever do a copy/paste from an X11 app to windows app or vice 
versa, so
no idea if the nedit issue is related to what you are seeing.
