I made a PKGBUILD of GAIM 1.2.0 that makes use of the alternate icons you can find here.
pkgname=gaim
pkgver=1.2.0
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A GTK+-based messaging client"
url="http://gaim.sourceforge.net"
depends=('x-server' 'startup-notification' 'libao'  'gnutls' 'tk' 'gtkspell')
source=(http://dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/gaim/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.bz2 
        http://www.gnome-look.org/content/files/22348-gaim-icons-redux-0.1.tar.bz2)
md5sums=('220a1a61a67a621ce5b5d96b279c883b' 
         '0242b34538547be6ccd2d7569f4bbd3b')
build() {
  cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
  ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-gtkspell --enable-gnutls=yes --enable-nss=no
  make || return 1
  make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install
  rm $startdir/pkg/usr/lib/perl5/*/$CARCH-linux-thread-multi/perllocal.pod
  mv $startdir/pkg/usr/lib/perl5/?.?.? $startdir/pkg/usr/lib/perl5/current
  cp -R $startdir/src/gaim/ $startdir/pkg/usr/share/pixmaps

isnt it possible to make a theme of these icons without requiring the default gaim package to be blatted?

Yes, just keep the cd and cp lines in the build function. The rest is done in the official gaim PKGBUILD. I haven't tested it though.

Any ideas when 1.2.0 is going into current?
