Hi

Your problem with text in title bar in ICEwm might be either GIMP
version issue or wrong configuration of ICEwm and Xorg.
I use ICEwm by startx/xinit on laptop. All programs, including GIMP
2.6 display text in titlebar. On PC i use ICEwm, with KDM and GIMP 2.8
and i do have text in title bar. GIMP in KDE also displays text in
titlebar.

My configuration is mostly done by Debian developers - i use packages
from their repository. System encoding set to utf8.
I used to have issues in other programs and ICEwm because of encoding.
Whenever system, Xorg and software were not configured to the same
encoding, ICEwm tend to behave "strange".
(In my area one can expect iso8859-2, cp1250 and sometimes cp1251 &
iso8859-1 - we use this characters and menus tend to miss either
characters or whole items). NLS flag might be responsible for such
problems afaik it deals with encoding too.

Hope You'll find what cause the problem.
Good Luck
