Yeah, the theme doesn't set it.  And there's no UI for changing the
button ordering.  It has to be done in gconf-editor or with gconftool. 
The relevant key to change is /apps/metacity/general/button_layout. 
I've seen a couple of screenshots where this wasn't set to the default
"Windows" layout, but I don't remember which ones off-hand.  Perhaps I
should look through all the documentation and write down anything that's
wrong with each screenshot.
