set background=dark not working in vimrc

Hi,

I am using the solarized colorscheme which uses different colors
depending on background=light/dark.
When I manually do a ":set background=dark", I get the colors as
expected. But when I write
set background=dark
in my .vimrc, vim starts with a light background-setting anyway. Any
ideas what I could doing wrong?
I checked all the files I am sourcing whether there is a set
background=light but I can't find anything.
