I have the same setup (X11 2.6.1, MacPorts emacs). I work in emacs in  
X11 2.6.1 all day every day. Those keystrokes do work exactly as  
expected for me -- in fact, local MacPorts emacs looks, feels and  
works *exactly* like remote linux emacs displaying locally via ssh -X.

Let's compare setups.

X11 preferences:

   Input tab: "Emulate 3-button mouse" is the only option I have  
checked; all others are unchecked.
   Pasteboard tab: All checkboxes checked.

See if the following hard-won Mac clipboard integration elisp works.  
Put it somewhere in your .emacs (or init.el):
