start

  runemacs -q

In the *scratch* buffer, evaluate any of the following:
(set-background-color "gray10")
(set-background-color "gray20")
(set-background-color "gray30")

this should set the background to a dark gray color. Instead, all
three forms set the background color to a light grey (using an external
color picker shows it to be #BEBEBE). Even (set-background-color "gray90")
sets it to BEBEBE. Other colors work better

(set-background-color "black")
(set-background-color "white")
(set-background-color "blue")

all work. But the failure to honor gray30 or anything close to it
seriously breaks (color-theme-gray30) or similar packages.
