Thanks!
Yes, in-fact I am building a stand-alone application that does not
even need an installer - you just drag the icon where you want and
double-click it to start using it...

Interesting. When I set 'XDG_DATA_DIRS' to my share directory I get
no errors, and if I set it to anything else I get the hicolor message:
(evolution-2.10:18670): Gtk-WARNING **: Could not find the icon
'stock_mail'. The 'hicolor' theme
was not found either, perhaps you need to install it.
You can get a copy from:

I have in my share/icons dir:
drwxr-xr-x 10 jeshua jeshua 340 Apr 24 01:25 gnome
drwxr-xr-x 16 jeshua jeshua 544 Jun 6 02:23 hicolor
And in my share/themes dir I have:
drwxr-xr-x 4 jeshua jeshua 136 Jun 2 21:57 Default
drwxr-xr-x 3 jeshua jeshua 102 Jun 2 21:57 Emacs
drwxr-xr-x 3 jeshua jeshua 102 Jun 2 21:57 Raleigh
I guess I will try installing the 'gnome-theme-manager' next...
