The themes haven't been updated. The means for specifying the font has
changed from Openbox2. Live and learn.

Its now specified with a .xftfont directive, such as "window.title.xftfont:
foo" where foo is a standard XFT font string. You can see how to build this
string with the xft tutorial on eax.com/render.
