Maybe the escape sequences for DECterm differ subtly from xterm. It
looks like a bit of control has leaked into the text. I set my xterm
title to machine:pwd by tweaking the cd command. The od command can
display what is going on.

cd . | od -c
    
0000000 033 ] 0 ; n e m o : / u s r / p e
0000020 o p l e / g s e z 0 2 0 007
0000035

The third character should be 0, 1 or 2 to set the title on the
window, icon or both. Perhaps your sequence has an extra "1]" in it.
