Manual workaround found, anyway.
The Debian patches should not be affecting the Icon behavior (there are only a few, and they mostly just rename things to fit Debian policy). It might be some dependency issue, if you rebuild the whole package using the libs on your machine does this issue go away? Maybe you have some library conflict and require the package being rebuilt for your system, so it is the rebuild of the package that is fixing the issue for you, not the debian patches.
