I tried to elaborate in a later posting, but in addition, I should add that 
these icons were created by me and are meaningful to me.   All twelve of 
those windows that I am complaining about are emacs windows from emacs 
processes running on various hosts but all running the same emacs binary, 
and I need a way of distinguishing them from each other as I have to switch 
focus between them frequently.     Each emacs sets its icon-type 
individually.    Hope that clarifies.

Obviously subjective, but IMHO, as a reason for choosing RH7.2 versus RH9, 
in the overall range of goofiness, I'd rate it barely a semi-goof.    Now if 
it was a reason for going all the way back to Windows and Exceed ...
