Thanks for your response. Setting each toolbar manually does at least acheive the desired behaviour. I don't believe I've ever set the toolbar style manually in a single application, although I have experimented with the global setting the Control Panel. Perhaps each application is remembering the setting from the first time it was launched? I've tried this out on my "default settings" user and gotten similar results.
