Thanks Ingo, but I meant something different. Let a python programm call

	window.set_icon_from_file("some_icon")

If "some_icon" contains a png image (irrespective of the suffix), the 
icon appears in the top left corner of the window, as expected. However, 
if the file contains a svg image, the program crashes with the error message

glib.GError: Couldn't recognize the image file format for file some_icon

The question remains whether this happens because IceWM's refuses to 
display svg images.
