vim - on exit: Warning: Color name "BACKGROUND" is not defined

All,

  On Arch when I run vim in konsole in R14, when I exit a file, I get the
following warning every time:

  Warning: Color name "BACKGROUND" is not defined

  I don't know if this is a tde problem not setting "BACKGROUND" or if it is a
vim problem not finding "BACKGROUND" it should set or handle.

  Has anyone seen this warning? Where should background be set and to what? It
kind of looks like the basic xterm settings are not being found, but I've
checked settings in konsole and they look like they do in other installs. Is
this something that isn't being set by starttde?

  It's not a standard environment issue, because I set:

18:19 valkyrie:~/Documents/bld/twcs5> export BACKGROUND=#000000
18:20 valkyrie:~/Documents/bld/twcs5> set | grep BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND='#000000'
_=BACKGROUND

  and I still get:

18:20 valkyrie:~/Documents/bld/twcs5> vi PKGBUILD
Warning: Color name "BACKGROUND" is not defined

  Any thoughts?
