emacs toolbar lost its icons

With the recent update from gtk 3.18.9 to 3.20.2, emacs ("GNU Emacs 24.5.1
(x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.16.6) of 2015-09-09 on foutrelis")
has lost the icons that previously appeared in its top toolbar. There's now just
a blank gray bar (although if I mouse over it, tooltips corresponding to the
toolbar actions pop up).

I'm using the Adwaita theme, so I guess this shouldn't be a broken 3rd party
theme issue. Any suggestions on how to get the icons back? Thanks.

Ah, it's a known issue, good. In the meantime I've rebuilt emacs to use gtk2.

As I stated in the related bug: temporarily installed https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/emacs-git/ in place of the "normal" one.

Re: emacs toolbar lost its icons

I installed the webkitgtk package and rebuilt the Arch Linux emacs package. The toolbar icons appear.

I posted this observation at the bug report noted in a previous posting: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/48862
