I've just tested it with the latest natty image (via TestDrive) and the bug is still present. Martin, are you sure that you did everything like comment #4 says? Notice that you have to *select* the new theme after saving it. Steps 8-9 of the procedure say to change to Ambiance and then back to new theme, but actually clicking on the thumbnail of the new theme is enough.
BTW this bug is also present in maverick and lucid, but it is probably not important enough for SRU.
Actually the fix *is* Ubuntu specific because it only changes debian/patches/52_button_layout_from_theme.patch which is Ubuntu specific. AFAIK theme's preferred button layout (through X-GNOME-Metatheme/ButtonLayout index file key) was introduced in lucid and isn't supported upstream and in Debian.
