The build of nedit from nedit.org which is using OpenMotif works fine.
I have the same problem with nedit copy/paste functions. The build on nedit.org does not work for me. I am using FC6 x86_64.

I was able to get nedit to function properly by using the pre-built binary at nedit.org AND grabbing libXp.so from my FC3 distro, which seems to have been deprecated in FC4.
Let me guess, You are all using x86_64, because I've just fixed this and its 64 bit specific. Anyways this is a dup of bug 243508. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 243508 ***
