FVWM: trouble using AspectPixmap ...

Annoyingly, this seemed to work yesterday :-(
I'm using 2.5.4, full colour display.

I have the following base menu config:

        Colorset 2 fg rgb:90/ff/ff, bg rgb:00/00/20
        MenuStyle "*" AutomaticHotkeys, Animation, SeparatorsShort, TrianglesRelief, BorderWidth 0, \
                        HiLight DeepSkyBlue, Shadow paleblue, \
                        MenuColorset 2

That all seems good.

Now, I have a menu-backdrop chooser that says:

        ColorSet 2 plain, bg darkgreen, Tint cyan 50, Alpha 70, AspectPixmap "/path/to/thing.png"

The "bg darkgreen" is a debugging setting to make sure the command got applied.
Anyway, the backdrop pixmap never seems to be applied.
Am I doing something obviously wrong here?
Maybe reapply the MenuColorset?

Also, my final design probably wants to look like this:

        Colorset 2 fg rgb:90/ff/ff, bg rgb:00/00/20
        Colorset 3 fg yellow, bg rgb:00/00/50
        Colorset 4 fg darkgray, bg black
        MenuStyle "*" AutomaticHotkeys, Animation, SeparatorsShort, TrianglesRelief, BorderWidth 0, \
                        HiLight DeepSkyBlue, Shadow paleblue, \
                        MenuColorset 2, ActiveFore, HilightBack, ActiveColorset 3, GreyedColorset 4

I presume I'll have to apply the AspectPixmap to all three colorsets, or
maybe discard them and just use one colorset?
