This is a known problem with, I think, how wx deals with the notebook 
theme settings for XP.  Nobody's found a solution yet.  It only happens 
when the notebook has no pages to begin with, so the easiest way to work 
around it is to either always give the notebook at least on page, or 
don't create the notebook until you need to show the first page.
