Beta Upgrade Theme Bug?

Not sure exactly where to put this.  Testing upgrading form 1.0.9 to 1.1  Beta 3 I copied my test forum and removed all add ons / mods.  Then installed.  Seemed to go ok except the theme was a mess.  No avatar in the user button.  No up chevron, no icons in the board icon legend near the bottom.

So I had changed the name of "Elkarte Default Theme" to something else long ago in the database.  Everything still pointed to the same directory (themes/default) and in 1.0.9 all seemed happy.  In 1.1b3 what I described above happened.  So I went into the database and changed the "name" variable in the prefix_themes table back to "Elkarte Default Theme" and the theme seemed happy.

So I changed the name back and things were still happy.  Any idea to what's going on here?

What I've noticed in my tests is that, for some reason, it requires a hard-refresh more than usually necessary to "forget" about the old theme.
I'm not sure why...
Bugs creator.
Features destroyer.
Template killer.

Noticed the same. It must be some cache issues somewhere.
