Thanks for the tip, but my GNUstep/Defaults dir always only has the one WMState file. I have never seen any WMState.xxx before. Are these supposed to be created automatically?

The files in my GNUstep dirs seem to be all there and intact, but the only way i have found to fix this issue is to delete my GNUstep dir and start a new.
