Yes, among other things the selection functions in gdk/quartz/gdkselection-quartz.c are only stubs. Patches should be submitted to http://bugzilla.gnome.org against gdk-quartz. Search first; there might already be a bug on this that you should hang your patch on. Good luck!

Strange, though, that it works with Safari and not withiTunes.
