I've tracked down the problem to the update_client_name() function
in the cmd/wm/client.c file. The problem is that both if-statements
at line 34 and line 37 fail for the clients whose titles contain
Telugu text in Unicode format. Therefore the default value of NULL
(line 28) is kept for the client name.

Is there a reason why a locale of te_IN.UTF-8 would make
Xi18nTextPropertyToTextList() at line 37 fail? Is there some other
way to read a non-XA_STRING encoded client name?

Thanks for your attention.
