To provide additional information:

<<
The lookup is done first in the current theme, and then recursively in each of the \
current theme's parents, and finally in the default theme called "hicolor" \
(implementations may add more default themes before "hicolor", but "hicolor" must be \
last). As soon as there is an icon of any size that matches in a theme, the search is \
stopped. Even if there may be an icon with a size closer to the correct one in an \
inherited theme, we don't want to use it. Doing so may generate an inconsistant \
change in an icon when you change icon sizes (e.g. zoom in).
> > 

This seems very clear to me.  To make this very clear, KDE does not do this -- it \
does not follow the spec.  If you are using KDEClassic and a size is missing, you get \
a CrystalSVG icon not a scaled KDEClassic icon.

The first fix for this bug caused a new bug which now needs to be fixed.
