I don't think AIM users CAN see AOL icons.

Really? I've never been able to see AOL users' icons, and as far as I'm aware they can't see AIM users' icons.

Just to clarify, the discrepancy is between the AOL and AIM clients. AOL account names connecting with AIM are indistinguishable from non-AOL account names in my experience.
Also worth noting is that older clients won't send their icon until the 2nd or 3rd IM is exchanged, while newer clients store their icons server side and we can retrieve them soon after connecting. Not necessarily related, but it causes a lot of confusion with icon related issues.
