Subsequently started shell buffers are back to midnightblue. I noticed another strange behaviour when using the above set-face-background in the shell-mode-hook: In the *shell* buffer I type: chsh and get prompted for a password in the minibuffer. After entering the password, ALL buffers in the current frame have a "midnightblue" background, not only the *shell* buffer. I tried this with XEmacs 21.0.66 and 21.0.67.
