This is one of the gotcha's so far in Leopard (I don't know if RunRev 
can fix this), but if the button style you are using is "standard", but 
the height of the button is more than 24 pixels, the style remains 
internally as "standard", but it draws like a "rectangle" button.

The other three things I've found so far are:

1) Palettes/modeless/modal windows have a light blue background now 
instead of pinstriped (so for those of us who have simulated the 
pinstripe in toplevel windows, we'll have to check for platform now and 
adjust accordingly).

2) The Option/Pulldown/Popup buttons now adopt the Leopard menu style 
(i.e. rounded corners), but the ComboBox button doesn't (it still has 
square corners).

3) The slider button has the top of the slider thumb clipped off in 
Leopard.

I haven't seen or experienced any code-related issues in Leopard yet; 
it's all been interface issues so far...
