There are two different ways to work around this:

Remove this dependency org.eclipse.e4.ui.workbench.addons.swt
Use this CSS-snippet:

.MPartStack { swt-maximize-visible: false; swt-minimize-visible: false; }

But there is another bug if you apply rule as below:

.MPartStack { 
    swt-maximize-visible: true; 
    swt-minimize-visible: false; 
}

Initially "Minimize" button is hidden.
If you maximize a part stack, now "Minimize" button is visible and you can really minimize the part stack.

MinMaxAddon#setCTFButtons(..) does not respect what css rule said, which always reveal the "Minimize" button for maximized part stack.
