[Mono-osx] Copy & Paste Issue in WinForms

It seems that the clipboard in a WinForms application on OSX is limited
to the application itself. For example, I don't seem to have any
problems copying text from one text box and pasting it to another in the
same app. However, I can't copy out of TextEdit or the terminal and
paste into my app, or vice versa. I'm using Mono 2.4 RC3 on an Intel Mac
running 10.5.6.
I took a look through the Mono code and it appears that Mono is creating
a reference to the primary clipboard and an application clipboard, but
in all cases it only uses the application clipboard. Is there a reason
why the primary clipboard isn't used, or is this a bug?
I don't have this problem on Linux...
Thanks!
