This patch looks good enough that I've applied it.  There's one issue
I've noticed, namely that if you scale a subshape up to pretty large,
you can have it fly out of the supershape by increasing the size of the
supershape.  But that's a minor thing.  Getting the default background
colors to work in general may be a good idea.

Sorry it took so long to get it in.
