Oops, lopped that off in editing.

Hmm. I didn't notice that it reverted to the default theme since for me
it was no different than before.

After googling a bit more, a much better place for the customization is
to move my suggestion directly into the file: $HOME/.gtkrc-2.0 (creating
it if needed).

==> ~/.gtkrc-2.0 <==
style "vim-background" {
bg[NORMAL] = "#f00"
}
widget "vim-main-window.*.GtkForm" style "vim-background"
====================
