i would like to ask for a volunteer or two to verify this bug:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106310

the test is extremely simple and will only take 30 seconds. it requires that you have x11-base/xorg-x11 6.8.2-r4 installed (stable version) as that is the version i need to test. please set LC_ALL to a utf8 locale and then start plain, vanilla X (no other desktop, just X).
Code:
export LC_ALL=en_US.utf8
startx

then check to see if your titlebars are huge, as in this snapshot:

if they are, please set your LC_ALL back to "C", restart X and see if the titlebars go back to normal, as in this snapshot:

thanks in advance for anyone who responds.

I know you didn't ask, but I did the test using xorg-server and everything is ok here...
