It appears that the bug is in your application rather than in Sawfish.
There is no mention of UTF8_STRING in the ICCCM. The valid types for
text are COMPOUND_TEXT, STRING and C_STRING. The latter does not
specify an encoding and is thus inappropriate here. This leaves the
two types that appear in the if statement.
UTF-8 support is defined in the EWMH spec instead. Applications can
use the properties _NET_WM_NAME and _NET_WM_ICON_NAME as UTF-8 encoded
replacements for WM_NAME and WM_ICON_NAME. The WM should use the _NET
properties in preference to the traditional ones. I am not sure if
Sawfish does that. If not, that would be a bug in Sawfish.
