Instead of an ugly XCLASS there is a nice hook you could use:
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['t3lib/class.t3lib_pagerenderer.php']['render-postProcess']

Look at t3lib_PageRenderer::render() for details about this hook. It 
gives you an array with references to all the parts of the page, 
including the headTag property which normally contains '<head>'. There 
you can add your title tag to the very top of the head section.
(Only add the hook when you're in FE mode...)

Now you just have to see how you use the way 
TSpagegen::renderContentWithHeader() generates the page title:

	// Title
$titleTagContent = 
$GLOBALS['TSFE']->tmpl->printTitle($GLOBALS['TSFE']->altPageTitle ? 
$GLOBALS['TSFE']->altPageTitle : $GLOBALS['TSFE']->page['title'], 
$GLOBALS['TSFE']->config['config']['noPageTitle'], 
$GLOBALS['TSFE']->config['config']['pageTitleFirst']);
if ($GLOBALS['TSFE']->config['config']['titleTagFunction']) {
	$titleTagContent = 
$GLOBALS['TSFE']->cObj->callUserFunction($GLOBALS['TSFE']->config['config']['titleTagFunction'], 
array (), $titleTagContent);
}

if (strlen($titleTagContent) && 
intval($GLOBALS['TSFE']->config['config']['noPageTitle']) !== 2) {
	$pageRenderer->setTitle($titleTagContent);
}

It looks like this code can be used almost anywhere in the FE as long as 
the data in TSFE has already been generated.
