xrdb ~/.Xdefaults partially fixed the problem. I had assumed that
logging out then back in to X11 effectly did the same thing, but
apparently not!

Now I see the phonetic characters like this -

(back-to-front 3), "g", "z", "a", ("~" in superscript position), "p", "l"

That's ok, except the "a" and ("~" in superscript position) shoud be
displayed as a single character. This represents the French nasal
vowel "an" as in "banque". There is a similar problem with the other
nasal vowels. However, uxterm (unicode xterm) manages to diplay as
single characters.

Thanks again
