Excuse me for flooding the list but someone else might come across this
in the future.

I think this is related to my:
LANG=en_GB.UTF-8
in locale.

Which means it needs a font which can display UTF-8 for the title font.

I have now changed the titlebar font to:

TitleFont       "-*-*-*-r-*-*-20-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*"

and installed some fonts.

So the above LC_ALL=C is necessary, as it merely overrides the utf-8.
