Ahh, yes. I had this same problem. I mentioned it on this list and the c++ list and after a revision or two in wxWindows the release notes said that some theming problems had been fixed.
However I have 2.2.2 now and it still looks just as bad. The listctrl is another culprit as well. Since my app is primarily textctrl's and listctrl's I pretty much had to give up on matching the rest of the desktop with wxpython.

Subject: Re: [wxPython] Multiline TxtCtrl won't take GTK default colors
From: Stephen Aichele <aichele@mindspring.com>
To: wxpython-users@lists.sourceforge.net
Reply-To: wxpython-users@lists.sourceforge.net
I have a number of TxtCtrl windows in an app I'm writing. When I specify a default
color for these windows, certain GTK themes will override the color I've specified
for the single-line TxtCtrls, but will default to 'white' for the multiline
TxtCtrls. this is somewhat annoying. Ideally, I'm trying to find a gtk theme that
will allow my app to be virtually transparent, but these big fat white multiline
TxtCtrl fields defeat the whole purpose. argh.
suggestions???
