/etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf? I looked at that for awhile, and for grins I changed:
GraphicalTheme=Default

GraphicalTheme=Bluecurve
It's now complaining about icon-language.png instead of background.png.
Did you try yum remove gdm && yum install gdm ?
No, I hadn't retried that, so I just did now. No change. The problem is somewhere else, somewhere in a recent update. I now have another server doing the same thing.
I haven't run into this problem with any of our upgrades, but there are a couple things you can check. Make sure that (and I'm making the grand assumption of centos4 here) libpng is installed, that in /etc/sysconfig/selinux SELINUXTYPE is set to targeted and not strict (if it's enabled at all), and that the permissions on the directory are as they should be. A quick way to check the files would be to rpm -Vv gdm (man rpm, under verify section for what the different results mean) and see what it if anything it marks as altered. You might also consider doing this to redhat-artwork, since this is the package that actually contains the theme that's breaking.
