hmmm...I use my clipboard tool everyday and i routinely have 7-10  days
uptime, during which I think I would have come across this.  My guess is
that this one is new.
But thats not to say there are not other bugs in the clipboard.

Thanks for the heads up about this before I decide to rebuild using LC 9.6.5
