Almost certainly an xterm bug.  Do either of these fix it?

   LANG=C LC_ALL=C remind -q -c+ /dev/null

   remind '-i$SuppressLRM=1' -q -c+ /dev/null

Xterm is completely broken in a UTF-8 environment.  It's time to
switch to something modern.

(Also, you don't really need the -q.  It does nothing in calendar mode.)

Regards,

Dianne.
