Okay. I may be losing my mind.
I tried those themes mentioned in the thread: "New Complete Themes for
SeaMonkey"
I removed them.
I just noticed that the scroll bars in SeaMonkey are different. Notice
the vertical scroll bars in these screen shots:

<http://edmullen.net/temp/sm02.jpg>
Umm, have they looked like that before? Or did temporarily installing
those themes somehow permanently modify the packaged Modern theme? Or
am I just losing it?
Themes do change scrollbars as well as toolbars.
...but they shouldn't persist once you change the Theme to another one.
Now I'm *really* suspicious...
They do if installed as a separate extension when installing the theme.
Nobody noticed they were installing two add-ons?
Looking at the Metal Lion Silver Sea Monkey theme I see an extension
called Metal Lion Sea Monkey Silver Scrollbars that comes with the
theme. Same for the Sea Monkey Metal Lion theme called Metal Lion Sea
Monkey Scrollbars II.
I like the Silver theme best.
Check your extensions and remove the scrollbar extension.
I went to the Mozillazine artice cited in the OP. There I clicked the
two links:
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/metal-lion-silver-sea-monkey/>
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/metal-lion-sea-monkey/>
Each points to a Mozilla add-ons page where I clicked the "Add to
SeaMonkey" buttons. The only new things that showed up in my Add-ons
Manager were those two themes. When I Removed them in Add-ons Manager
their .xpi folders/files remained behind, causing the issue I first
cited.
There were no Scrollbars extensions shown and zero indication that
something that modifies the Modern theme was going to be installed.
The only way to solve it was deleting the .xpi folders/files.
VERY poor practice/design.
