Hm, is the full alpha channel independent of the 1-bit transparency
mask that we have on older Windows version?  If so, couldn't we
combine both icons into one?  On XP, the white background and black
border would be hidden through the alpha mask.  On older systems the
white background would show.  The only downside would be that the X
character would have to be one pixel smaller on each side, because in
the white-background version we need two borders, one white and one
black.
