Bug Description

Binary package hint: light-themes

To reproduce:
    1. Open gedit
    2. Open the "About" dialog
    3. Observe the metacity buttons

I'm not sure if there is a way to fix this easily, maybe a svg (or three) could be imposed under the buttons? It isn't a huge ordeal, but it is enough to take away from the "polished" feel.

This would also apply to anyone who has changed the default order of the buttons.

e.g. ( Close | Min | Max)
