The background colour for a standard OS button will come from the user's 
desktop theme. Because these are native widgets, on most desktops this 
standard colour can't be changed - this is a feature not a bug ;) as it 
keeps applications consistent with respective GUI standards.

If you really must have multi-coloured buttons, use Wx::BitmapButton.
