yeah, that's a black .png iirc, which makes fixing this slightly harder.  Also
happens on windows.

Could this just switch between a black .png and a white .png depending on the
luminance of the theme background?

We should make Mozilla/Firfox obey Windows/Gnome Theme color setting, not to use
a fixed gif. Bug 174740 is similar to this bug.
