OK, here's the bt. So something to do with category items which rang a
bell. In my custom I had a default 

 '(org-agenda-category-icon-alist (quote (("" "" nil nil nil))))

This caused the issue. I removed it and all was well. Possibly some
bolstering of the category icon code might protect against this - not
sure if it would be a common occurrence or not.
