When the Gtk+ theme is changed, many custom controls such as CTabFolder do not
have their colours updated.  On Linux-Gtk+, the ::style-set signal is emitted
when the system colours are changed:

http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkWidget.html#GtkWidget-style-set
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2002-October/msg00115.html

This could be used to implement an event which indicates that the system colour
constants in SWT have been updated.  I believe this is similar to bug 37457
which describes a similar event which is not propagated under Windows.
