I did a little testing (again, on XP), and we seem to be using the correct version of comctl32.dll (down in the winsxs x86 directory). Since other windows libraries (Arwen, wxEuphoria, w32engine) don't appear to have this issue, my best guess is that Win32Lib is somehow not initializing common controls correctly. I suppose the most obvious thing is to compare how the libraries do this differently.
Since the problem is with backgrounds, it may have to do with something like a WM_ERASEBACKGROUND message. Or maybe something to do with Custom Drawing messages?
