All menu icons are gone in Xfce 4.18 (i.e. Settings -> Appearance -> Icons has all options turned off by default)

It looks like the Settings Tab in Settings->Appearance now has all options turned off, including "Show images in menus".

When I create a new user, all I see in the xsettings.xml file is this -

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<channel name="xsettings" version="1.0">
  <property name="Net" type="empty">
    <property name="ThemeName" type="empty"/>
  </property>
  <property name="Gtk" type="empty">
    <property name="DecorationLayout" type="string" value="menu:minimize,maximize,close"/>
  </property>
</channel>

xsettings.xml under /etc/xdg/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml is the complete file with icons enabled (attached).xsettings.xml

The strange behavior is that once I re-enable the icons, everything functions normally. If I upgrade Xfce 4.18 in place, user settings are also clobbered.
