Yes, we do have an SVG set, and I think Arun copied the pieces by hand
from the original xpm pieces (and the extra ones I made for variants). So
they look as similar as you could expect. One obvious difference is that
the SVG pieces are anti-aliased during the rendering, making use of
gray-scales even when they were defined in glorious black & white.

To get an impression of how the pieces look nowadays, the following two
links are fine. (They are for 49x49 square size, which is not too large.)

These two screenshots were taken from the Xaw version; The following link
gives a summary of how the GTK windows look:
