Comment(by nosnilmot):

 The problem is the hicolor-icon-theme package on CentOS 5 is too old (0.9)
 to support the "Status" context, from [http://www.mail-archive.com
 /desktop-devel-list at gnome.org/msg07848.html here]:

 > If your system is using the version 0.9 of hicolor, you can install your

 I'm not sure what the best thing to do is. The symlink trick works because
 gnome-icon-theme does define the "Status" context directories, but this
 will only work for themes that inherit the "gnome" theme.
