Well, the new Clearlooks entails both the Cairo-enabled
Clearlooks engine in gtk-engines and the Clearlooks theme
data in gnome-themes.  Both the engine and the theme data
have changed.  The theme data is probably setting a few
things that are new to the engine, but most notably, it's
using a brigher and more saturated set of colors.

Both the engine and the theme data are responsible for
point (b).  The engine is responsible for point (a).
