It looks like either /etc/profile.d/xorg.sh is missing (reinstall libx11), or that some GConf schemas haven't been installed. Check /var/log/pacman.log for entries about "gconftool-2 not found" and run "gconfpkg --install [packagename]" for each package you suspect that failed to run its postinstall this way.

Re: GNOME 2.20.1 Theme is not present (Pango / GLIB issue)

gnome is nice but such a buggy pain in the a**...   I think, I had the same problem just recently. Then I  added
~/.gtkrc.mime file and a line

gtk-icon-theme-name = "Gnome"  #might try different

and in file ~/.gtkrc-2.0 a line

include "~/.gtkrc.mime"  #or enter the full path

But, because I also did -Syu (including kernel and glibc), I'm not very sure if that helped. But you can try.
OTOH, now my gnome has other problems which I'm going to post...
