When I modify Murrine Brave Dark as described above, I do get smaller scroll bars in Emacs. The scroll bars in gnome-terminal and Emacs look exactly the same. But this also depends on font size. Emacs pads the scroll bar to a multiple of the font size. That is because if you do a C-x 3 there is nothing to take up the slack if the scroll bar is different from the character width.
I don't think there is a bug here. This is a known limitation in Emacs, and so far there has been no work into remove it.
