Hmm, if I remember correctly you have to alloc the color from the window's
colormap, since gc needs a pixel value, which in turn is only allocated
(or determined for truecolor displays) at that phase. What happens now is
that the pixel value has a default of 0, which usually is black on indexed
color displays and black on truecolor displays.
If that doesn't help, I'll take a look at my own code when I get to home
later, and check the correct calling sequence.
