Now I understand Kyle's intent a little more clearly. here is a patch to
reinstate -bg behaviour. This has the advantage that if you set
attributeBackground for the default face the modeline will still pick up
the background spec. I'm still not sure this fixes BillP's problem but
we'll see.

* x-faces.el: default gui-element face to "background" as well as
the default face.
