Brian's diagnosis of a conflicted cvs update looks on the mark.

Thanks for the reminder--memory leak on my part ;-)

Not necessarily!  It was carried over from pre-Balsa2, and there may 
well be a more Gnome2ish way to do it.  There's a whole new chunk of 
libgnomeui dealing with icon themes and looking them up, and we've been 
advised (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99088) that it's the 
way to go.  There is at last some documentation 
(http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/libgnomeui/index.html), so 
perhaps we can soon replace some home-brewed code with the new stuff.

Best,

Peter
