I've tried adding that line as well.  If I set it to 16, the icon
appears smaller, but the offline icon still isn't rendered.  If I set
it to 22 then it still displays a blank page for the offline icon.

I had some not upgraded.  I've upgraded them now and restarted KDE,
and the icon still don't work.

Now left are (not libmimelib1 is removed):

$ dpkg -l | grep 3\\.2\\.[23]

ii  3270-common              3.2.20-2                 Common files for IBM 3270 emulators {x,c,s,tcl}3270, and pr3287
ii  libapm1                  3.2.2-2                  Library for interacting with APM driver in kernel
rc  libmimelib1              3.2.3-1                  KDE mime library
ii  x3270                    3.2.20-2                 X11 program for telnet sessions to IBM mainframes

Hard work this!
