Um, you have localised window titles *without* multibyte support
compiled in? Then I do not understand anything about mb works with
X. Can someone explain how this is possible?

Actually, X complains about this, not fvwm. It would be possible
to fall back to using the "C" locale to load the font, but that
will require a major rewrite of the multibyte code (which will be
done anyway some time in the future).
