Because first, it is not at all clear to me that the theme selecter 
changes icons and scroll bar styles, and second, I *definitely* don't 
expect the register color settings to change icons and scroll bar 
styles. Am I wrong about that?

Before the upgrade, I changed the theme using the Theme Selector tool and changed the register colors with a custom gtkrc-2.0.gnucash file. On PC #2, I recently did a new install of 2.6.12 -- this PC had never had Gnucash installed on it before. Both are Windows machines (Win 7 Pro and Win 7 Starter).
