Hi Brecht,

In case you didn't notice it, I think this commit caused some problems  
with the property editor material preview. When you start up blender,  
it doesn't work (though the menu icons do) and just displays gray. If  
you then switch to textures, then back to material, it seems to go ok.  
Haven't had time to investigate it more deeply, just letting you know  
at least.

cheers,

Matt
