Of the 15 themes I have, 5 seems to be pixmap based.  The pixmap based
scroll bars does seem to be the ones that are immune to customizations.
The names does not indicate anything.  They have names like Grand 
Canyon,
Crux, Mist, Ocean Dream, etc.

I'd say the later, but I might just have been unlucky w.r.t. getting my
GTK bug reports fixed.
