Hi Ali, I've fixed the problem. (Thanks to Richard for he investigation). This is a problem in nimbus not checking for sane default values when drawing the handlebar of a toolbar. The fix will be available in build 98.
2008-08-14 Erwann Chenede - <erwann.chenede at sun.com> * gtk-engine/nimbus_style.c: don't draw the handle is the height requested is less that the image size (4 pixels). * configure.in : bumped release if you want to try my fix out you can download www.gnome.org/~erwannc/libnimbus.so and replace /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libnimbus.so by this one.
