In my case, it's to my company's product, which is an X session on a linux box running in VNC. If I do a cut and paste of the following text in COTVNC, it gets completely mangled.

I just got burned when I copied a URL http:// and it turned into http;// and mailed it to my group. Of course no one could use the URL. In my case I copied a URL from Camino and used the CotVNC Edit->Paste menu to paste this URL into a Thunderbird new mail window running on my remote PowerMac. I've also tried copying a single : in iTerm then using CotVNC Edit->Paste it into an iTerm session on my remote PowerMac. It does not seem to matter what the local applications is, nor what the remote applications is. All that seems to be needed is to use CotVNC as the clipboard handler.
