[Gtk-sharp-list] color in widgets

Hi,

I have a small question about using color with widgets. When I use the
following code, I get a button with a red background. But when Button is
replaced by Label or Entry in this code, their background color is not
changed:
=====
Button e = new Button("I am a red button");
Gdk.Color c = new Gdk.Color();
Gdk.Color.Parse("red", ref c);
e.ModifyFg(StateType.Normal, c);
========

Am I missing something here? (I compiled the latest Gtk version out of
CVS last friday, after the 0.11 release. Mono version= 0.26)

Thanks,
Kris
