Can gimp create stitched bitmaps?

I used a couple of Ofnuts' scripts: ofn-rotate-layer.py and ofn-layer-tiles.py

(although I had to alter ofn-rotate-layer.py to make it re-size the layers after rotation otherwise the tile script complained that the layers weren't all the same size)

No sure it is the right way, you would have to rotate only the center, otherwise the lighting on the bezel rotates with the button. 

So, IMHO:

• extract the button top
  
• generate N rotated copies (if the button top is a true circle, no resize needed later)
  
• use ofn-interleave-layers to reapply the rotated tops to copies of the bezel
  
• use ofn-layer-tiles to rebuild the sprite sheet
