Whatever you're doing, you're cheating ;-)

you can:
     o Make copies of the GdkColor structs on widget-> style.bg[GTK_STATE_NORMAL]
       (or is it ACTIVE ?), you might also want the .fg, .base & .text members.
       you'd want to do this post gtk_rc_parse().
     o Use gtk_widget_modify_bg (widget, GTK_STATE_INSENSITIVE, sensitive_bg)
       (and friends) to set the sensitive graphic state onto the insensitive state.

GdkColor *sensitive_bg = widget->style.bg[GTK_STATE_NORMAL];

fails with the following error:
error: request for member `bg' in something not a structure or union

and the same error occurs with all the other members of the style structure....

Any ideas?
