saving from GUI versus savefig, rc figure.facecolor, figure.edgecolor

Hi,

Trying to save a figure with a black figure.facecolor, black figure.edgecolor.
If I savefig(), it follows the rc file settings, but if save from the button
in the GUI, I get a white figure.facecolor and figure.edgecolor. I tried
changing the GUI backends to no avail. Currently using Qt4Agg.

Thanks.
