OK, it looks as though my problem is more complicated that I thought. Even after regenerating the MusicIP cache with no archiving, I still ended up with the strange squares in my tags when viewed from Slimserver. If I disabled the MusicIP server and did a rescan, all the tags are fine, but as soon as I run MusicIP again, they reappear. The subtle thing is that only three albums are affected. The only distinguishing features of these files are (i) they are mp3 files and (ii) I used foobar2000 to add replaygain tags (not sure whether this is cosher for mp3, but slimserver seems fine with them). Mp3 files with no replaygain tags are fine, ogg and flac files with replaygain files are also fine. Strange!
I found this recently too, and the cause at my end was an upgrade to the newer version of MP3Tag. It looks like the new version has a different default for the tag version written; take a look in Tools | Options | Tags | Mpeg | Write. When I changed this (I think I changed to ID3v2.3 UDF-16, but I'm not at home so can't be sure), then re-saved the files in question, this fixed it.
