There were recent patches touching these path creation routines
that could very well have introduced odd behavior.

Just do a:

git log util/getstyle.c

to see that there were patches touching these precise areas.

If you're copying the files to themeDir/assets then why is this
a problem for getstyle? Why would it care about other files elsewhere?
Note that I haven't read the code, so this is just a "common sense"
type of question.
