In Emacs.app, change the background color from white to black and make
appropriate changes in the text and other colors in .emacs. Then remove
those changes from .emacs and restart. The changed colors continue to
appear.

This has been true in all Emacs.app versions in 23, as far as I can tell.
In Carbon Emacs, running Emacs 22 and earlier versions, the display reverts
to the standard black on white.

I once had the same problem. Check if you have a file
~/Library/Preferences/org.gnu.Emacs.plist
That file contained some of the settings from my .emacs, including the
background color, so that deleting if from .emacs didn't have the
desired effect. I'm not sure when and why that file was written. It is
mentioned here
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Mac-Environment-Variables.html
as a means to save Xresources.
Regards,
David
