Morning Peter, st-0.2.1 works fine for simple diacritics (such as those in your email signature), at least with font: -*-terminus-medium-r-*-*-*-220-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*
I'd guess it's the default x / st font settings working against you. I know that isn't much of an answer. Why have you moved off the xft branch? I've been working with rather more complex characters than accented latin, and st-xft has been a godsend.
