Black background in new tabs

Description
Please describe the problem: When I open a new tab in an existing terminal window, the background is sometimes in black color. My configuration for the terminal colors is:
- personalized
- text color: black (
#000000
). - background color: light gray (#F0F0F0).
So my new tabs should be always in gray background color, not black.
If I minimice and restore the window (or type the "clear" command), then the correct background color (gray) is restored.
Steps to reproduce:
- Open a new terminal window (gnome_menu > Aplications > System_tools > Terminal) (or ctrl+shift+n in an existing terminal window).
- Minimize the window, maximize the window, open a new tab (terminal_menu > File > Open_tab > Default) (or ctrl+shift+t)
- Probably, the background color of the new tab is black. If it isn't, just repeat the "2." step several times (normally, the bug appears after 3-4 repetitions).
Actual results: After following that steps, some new tabs will have shown a black background color.
Expected results: The personalized gray color should have be used, instead of the black color.
Does this happen every time? This happens frecuently, specially after some time of use and after working with other windows/aplications.
Other information: My system is FedoraCore3, with standard packets and updates (yum) installed. The rpm packet name for the terminal application is gnome-terminal-2.7.3-1
Version: 2.7.x
