So what in those icons cause the problem?

I was wondering the same thing.

If you entirely replace those images with contents of files in
etc/images/, does the problem still persist?  If so, does it mean we
have problems with the GTK toolbar in other modes, like Gnus and GUD?

Replacing the XPM code in idlw-toolbar.el with the code from etc/images/paste.xpm doesn't make a difference (icons are still As). GUD icons display correctly. Maybe the problem is with the lisp code that creates the images in idlw-toolbar? Could you point me to the lisp code in GUD that creates its icons?
