Hello again,
Seems to be a habit of mine here, I ask a question, don't get an
immediate response and then look further into it and find some sort of
solution...

I've found the culprit, or put another way, I've found what to comment
out to fix the problem.
In my custom_widget_realize callback it has the following code which
if I comment out the last three lines of, the problem resolves:
window = gtk_widget_get_parent_window (widget);
gtk_widget_set_window(widget, window);
g_object_ref (window);
style = gtk_widget_get_style(widget);
style = gtk_style_attach(style, window);
gtk_widget_set_style(widget, style);
It is code I updated from this old code (which won't compile with
GTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED etc):
widget->window = gtk_widget_get_parent_window (widget);
g_object_ref (widget->window);
widget->style = gtk_style_attach (widget->style, widget->window);
This old code (which uses GDK rather than Cairo) doesn't have any
problem with theme changes... but without it the widgets aren't
updated after theme changes.
Scratching head..
