I agree that having the scroll bar on the left is quite unusual and it has been changed to having the scrollbar on the right by default in Emacs 24. I don't have XEmacs installed and I'm not sure if the new colors in Emacs 24 are any closer to your preference. Maybe having Emacs 24 in wheezy-backports would be nice, it could help some people not fully satisfied with Emacs 23.
