IMO, this is bad.  Gnus should get the default settings for these
variables from (S)XEmacs, instead of overriding the user's global
settings.

Would probably do it.  Although I'm not sure what would or should
happen if the user wanted to display multiple toolbars.[1]


Footnotes: 
[1]  (S)XEmacs can display up to 4 separate toolbars in a single frame
     (one along each edge) at the same time.
