User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061201 Firefox/2.0.0.1 (Ubuntu-feisty)
Build Identifier: 

Selecting text in an Xterm results in multiple active clipboard entries, even if "Normal clipboard management" is selected.

The latest X selection always prevails over xterm selections.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select some text in X -> check the clipman history -> The selected text is bold
2. Select some text in Xterm -> check the clipman history -> Both the selected xterm text and the previously selected X text are bold
3. Paste the latest clipboard entry: ctrl-v -> the X text gets pasted instead of the xterm text...



Expected Results:  
The latest selection/copy action should always overwrite the previous, either Xterm or X based... And only 1 item should be active (=bold) in the clipboard history...

I'm using r2480 of the clipman plugin.

This should be released in the version 0.9.0.  Can you test it?
