Bug 828392 is sort of a meta-bug for several issues with multiple packages.

This specific issue -- that the theme gradient background does not draw properly -- now has an upstream patch. I have attached the patch here as well. The patch comment details the causes of the bug and why the patch is the correct solution.

The short version is that gnome-panel sets the background pattern to that supplied by the theme but does not correct the scaling of the pattern to the size of the panel.
