Xfce now uses the "standard" GtkIconTheme class for looking up themed
icons, instead of the XfceIconTheme I wrote a while ago to work around
some of GtkIconTheme's past problems.  GtkIconTheme is a bit less
forgiving than XfceIconTheme.  I've attempted to work around these
problems to some extent, but it's obviously not perfect.

So what I need to try to fix this:
1.  The specific full pathname to the icon that *should* be showing up,
but isn't.
2.  The string the panel is using to try to look up the icon (probably
just whatever you selected in the panel should do).
3.  Your gtk version, out of somewhat idle curiosity.
