Gnome Panel shows resize handle

This bug appears to be back. I'm getting ugly little resize handles on my Gnome 2 panels.

Normally I'd be a little more verbose when adding a bug but I really don't know what else I can say than: There are resize handles on gnome-panel. They do nothing and look awful.

I suppose I could say: The backported resize handles look awful everywhere. Please drop the patch.

could you take a screenshot of the issue? do you use the standard theme?

I flipped out and filed another bug because these handles really ruin Ubuntu. They're almost *everywhere* and they look awful. Here's the other bug showing three different applications:

And here's the panel on its own:

To answer your question though, this is with a Clearlooks theme but it's apparent (just slightly more subtle) with both "standard" Radiance and Ambiance themes. This is an upgrade so I can't say how standard standard is.
