TabItem background color wrong (Mac OS X) [message #439512]

I've got a problem with TabFolder on SWT 3.0 on Mac OS X. The widgets
attached inside the TabItem (usually a Composite) draw with the generic
window background (light pinstripe pattern) instead of letting the tab
folder's gray background show through. This creates an ugly rectangle
effect like this: http://leuksman.com/mac/irate/ugly-tab.png

Setting SWT.NO_BACKGROUND on the composite gives me a solid white
background, which isn't much better.

This bug sounds like the same problem on Windows XP:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=24538

Any workaround ideas? Should I file a separate bug report for the Carbon
port?
