Fedora 21 XFCE(xfce4-panel-4.10.1) does not render the transparent color in GtkStatusIcon.
Attached the screenshot.

Run the following test program to reproduce the bug.

---------
#!/usr/bin/python
from gi.repository import Gtk

status_icon = Gtk.StatusIcon()
status_icon.set_from_icon_name('go-up')
Gtk.main()

I can reproduce this with Mageia Cauldron and xfce4-panel 4.11.1 + gtk3 3.13.8.

Something has changed in gtk3 (again) as gtk2 apps transparency works just fine.

FWIW, this is gtk3 3.14.1

From: https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/3.14/GtkStatusIcon.html

"GtkStatusIcon has been deprecated in 3.14. You should consider using notifications or more modern platform-specific APIs instead."

:(

Right. I confirmed gtk2 apps work fine.
