Summary: wxMotif 2.8.3: wxDC::SetTextForeground changes line color

Initial Comment:
Calling wxDC::SetTextForeground in a wxMotif configuration also changes the current 'line' color, although the active wxPen claims to be the correct color. I have stripped down samples/render/render.cpp and added some painting code in OnPaint to show the unexpected influence: both lines should appear in green color.

The bug is also visible in wxMotif-2.6.3.

A (nasty) work-around is to re-set the line color using wxDC::SetPen() immediately before drawing lines instead of relying on the current pen color.
