I know that.  And running under a Latin-1 locale, FVWM is displaying
all the right characters for me -- accents and all (especially so,
since the string stored in the WM_NAME XAtom differs from that in
_NET_WM_NAME -- quelle surprise.)

I think part of the problem is your continued assertion that WM_NAME
is used in preference of _NET_WM_NAME, and it's being blind-sighted a
little.  So please, I'd like you to detail step-by-step here, exactly
what it is we would need to do to reproduce your problem -- then I'll
take a look and try and verify it.
