I can answer myself, since a little experimentation turned up the answer
I was looking for. I asked:
When I launch X with an alternative wm like fluxbox, are there other
services I need to launch manually so Gnome applications can find
their
respective icons?
That would be gnome-settings-daemon, which amusingly enough is in the
much-disputed libexec path because ordinarily the end user should not
need to manually launch it.
That makes sense to me. I launch the gnome-settings-daemon when I start
openbox because then my themes show up correctly in gtk2 apps like
firefox, thunderbird and ROX. I didn't make the connection with this
discussion about evolution because I don't use evolution.
