[gentoo-user] Annoying white corner button after update

Greetings,

I had a rather large update yesterday and after restarting my emacs
today (I haven't restarted since the update), I found an annoying
arrow-like button at the corner of the window. The only thing I can do
with it is to double click to close the window (I use a tiling WM so
it's useless for resizing). A snippet where you can see it is at [1]. I
can't find anything online on what this is, where it came from, or more
importantly, how to get rid of this eyesore. Any clues appreciated.

Your first step in such cases is always to post the full list of
everything that was updated since it last worked.

genlop -l

from http://fuuzetsu.co.uk/misc/lop

That's quite a big update :-)

My first thought would be it looks like a window decoration, so I'd
guess the window manager. But x11-wm is not in your log, and I don't see
anything related to widgets either (assuming gtk is not relevant?)

I, like you, have no idea where to even start looking.

Anything from TheGoogle yet?
