3.6 regression: Toggle buttons states are the same for selected/not selected

Created attachment 227968 [details] Screenshot showing the issue I just upgraded to Gnome 3.6, but since then there are some issues with Eclipse buttons. Specifically, toggle buttons states for selected/not selected appear to be the same, with only the text color being slightly darker when selected. See the attached screenshot. This happens with both Eclipse 4.2 and 3.7, and it didn't happen on Gnome 3.4. Reproducible on both Arch Linux as of November 3, 2012, and UbuntuGNOME 12.10. Thanks
Eclipse 4.2 and 3.7 are still using GTK 2 for now, so the bug is actually in the Adwaita GTK 2 theme -> changed component. Apart from that, I can confirm the problem. It's pretty confusing when switching between perspectives.
Created attachment 229759 [details] [review] gtk2: Fix selected toggle button styling in SWT Patch against gnome-3-6 which fixes the issue. I don't know why that line was there in the first place though.
Thanks for the report and the patch; that line has been there since the first import of the GTK2 Bridge theme, so I assumed it worked...I think the intent is to remove an additional background some toolbars render in Eclipse. I pushed a slightly different patch, which should still fix the reported issue but avoids changing the toolbars' look.
Thanks Cosimo, your work is very much appreciated! Will verify soon.
Verified, good job.
