For some reason it seems that gnome-theme-manager does not even try to launch
gnome-theme-thumbnailer.
A strace on gnome-theme-manager does not show an attempt to launch the thumbnailer :

As you can see, on the last line the default blank "not available" theme
thumbnail is loaded. Before this line I cannot even find
something looking like a theme-thumbnailer exec call. Could this problem be
caused by something else ? I do not have the sources at hand, but maybe
gnome-theme-manager bases it's decision to show only a generic theme icon on
something else than gnome-theme-thumbnailer's failure.
