thanks for the concise result, and i can confirm the problem, it doesn't
seem the highlight.bg is used at all.  it is indeed read from the
php.ini file (phpinfo() confirms this), but it's not used in the actual
code in question.  poking around in the source code i don't find any
references to highlight.bg apart from the ini file and some test cases.
i'll forward this upstream and see what they think.

i hear from folks on irc that the bts is having some issues this
afternoon, maybe it's just temporary...
