Sounds like that's worth checking but I don't think that's related to
Alexanders change: Even before Adwaita applications were supposed
RRECOMMEND gnome-icon-theme if they needed it (not saying it's necessarily
a good idea but that's how it used to work and still works). So if pcmanfm
doesn't do that, it may be missing icons already and did so before adwaita
as well (assuming nothing else in the image pulled in the icon theme).

I don't think it's likely but there is a chance that gnome-icon-theme
contained icons that Adwaita does not provide (comparing them all turned
out to be tricky). So double-checking how pcmanfm looks with Adwaita might
make sense in any case.
