The confusion here is with sizetoimage.

For sake of demonstration, let's assume the box structure of a button is 
this:

<template border="buttonborder">
     redirect["image"] = $content;
     <box id="content" />
</template>

The 'image' is being redirected to the content.  The 'sizetoimage' put 
is landing on (in the above structure) the top level template node.  The 
top level template has no image, so it tries to size itself to [0,0]. 
However, since it's contents are larger than that, it is sizing to the 
size of the content and hence the border overlaps the image.

The content of a button actually runs sizetoimage anyway (the target is 
actually an <icon />).  So it's redundant.  you want this instead:

<button shrink="true" image="..." />
