A couple of default faces look rather ugly in the non-toolkit build.
For example the gray and 3D appearance of `tool-bar' and `mode-line'
look out-of-place in this flat, black & white world.

Not in a `defface'.

My point is that prior to the GTK option you could distinguish between
the three X builds in a `defface' -- now you can't because the
complement of (type 'x-toolkit) applies to both GTK and the
non-toolkit build.

Maybe `face-spec-set-match-display' should just be changed to
recognize a (type 'gtk) clause,
