Comment(by manuq):

 After more testings I found that the icons are not scaled right by GTK+ to
 the size needed in the entry, if they are of 55x55 pixels.

 The current dialog-cancel.svg is 55x55 because it can also be used in the
 standard icon size, like in toolbars.  Other icons that display properly
 inside entries, like system-search.svg, are of size 22x22.

 {{{
 icon name     | size of the svgs | size of the pixbuf
 dialog-cancel | 55.125 55        | 55 55
 system-search | 22.156 22.156    | 22 22
 }}}

 "size of the pixbuf" is the size of the GdkPixbuf returned to IconEntry
 from _SVGLoader .

 Proposal 1: add a workaround that resizes the icons if the size is not
 22x22.  Patch attached.

 Proposal 2: add a new icon for this usage: entry-cancel.svg.  proposed SVG
 attached.

 2. has the benefit that we can remove the space around the circle, needed
 in the 55x55 flavour for margin around the graphic, and make the circle
 22px diameter.  This seems to look better to me.
