Why would you need to rewrite the client for that?

/etc/x2go/x2goagent.options *on the server* has:

# Enforce clipboard behaviour in X2Go sessions globally (for all
connecting clients)
# Possible values for the -clipboard option: both, server, client, none
# If this option stays commented out, clients can choose the sessions'
clipboard behaviour...
#X2GO_NXAGENT_DEFAULT_OPTIONS+=" -clipboard both"

so setting

X2GO_NXAGENT_DEFAULT_OPTIONS+=" -clipboard none"

should do what you want.

If setting the above parameter doesn't help keeping copy/paste limited
to the X2Go session, then it's not working correctly and you should file
a bug.

May I ask what you are trying to achieve? Something like this, maybe?
