I’ve pushed a fix to the master branch. Can you please give it a try?

I think the old code just looked at the alpha channel to determine
whether any particular pixel was background or foreground, but the new
code uses the actual colour value.

If you then change the foreground colour, you have to look for that
new colour the next time you want to change it.

I’m not really sure why that specific change was made. I can only
assume that the alpha channel isn’t always a perfect guide.
