wmaker warning: could not load domain WMRootMenu from user defaults database
wmaker error: error reading from file '/home/luke/GNUstep/Defaults/WMState': No

The problem is that it's sensitive to the PATH used when running.
I'd put /usr/X11R6/bin first in the PATH (in startx.bat) before calling
startx, and that lead to WM crashing.

So, the answer is not to do that.  :-)
