Hello,

First let me say, that I think, it's a bug inside the GTK package, but
I'm not sure. The following problem occurs: When using
gtk_file_chooser_dialog_new_with_backend() in a program under e.g.
XFCE4, Fluxbox or KDE (nor GNOME), the theme path search seems to be
wrong: Instead of searching for gnome/index.theme, it searches for
GNOME/index.theme and because it cannot be found, it falls back to the
hicolor theme, so the FileChooser-Dialog does not contain any icons. But
when using gtk_file_chooser_dialog_new(), it searches gnome/index.theme
independent from the environment and the icons are available. Could this
be a bug in GTK?

Regards, Daniel
