Yup, there is a general lack of icons. For example, if I go to system
settings panel, choose Sound, the 'little speaker' icons on the sides of
slide bars are missing. The icon itself for the sound applet (and others)
are also missing.

And one other point: if you choose 'User Accounts' (or 'My account' in the
right user menu), the panel complaints it can not contact to the 'accounts
service'.

I have googled it and it looks like it is time to get new gdm and
accountsservice:
