I'm also having issues like these on the HTC Hero, but I think I have
something to add. Not only are icons reverting, but the applications
THEMSELVES are reverting back to older versions. I've confirmed at
least 20 apps that are reverted to old versions after a reboot. In
fact, I haven't found a single app that doesn't revert so far.
Using Pandora as an example, the initial version was 1.0.0
You can follow this process to replicate:
1. Uninstall the app from the Market, Manage Applicaitons, or Safe
Mode
2. Install the new version of the app from the Market. Start up the
app and confirm the update was successful. Pandora is easy as it
shows the version (1.1.1) on the splash screen at startup.
3. Reboot the HTC Hero.
4. The app will have reverted back to its initially installed version,
and the icons will revert to their original states as well.
Here's a thread over at the XDA-Developers forum if you want to see
other info about it.

I hope that HTC takes some responsibility for this, as I can replicate
this at will. Something is definitely rotten in the state of Denmark.
