I think this is where your problem is.  The atom for the normal
clipboard is not called "GDK_SELECTION_CLIPBOARD" but just "CLIPBOARD".
In C, GDK_SELECTION_CLIPBOARD is a #define for a pre-existing CLIPBOARD
atom.  In Perl, you can access it via Gtk2::Gdk->SELECTION_CLIPBOARD,
but Gtk2::Gdk::Atom->new('CLIPBOARD') works too.
