D'oh! Thanks for decoding that.

(face-background 'modeline-mousable) =>
#<color-specifier global=((default) . [#<face modeline "modeline
face">]) fallback=#<color-specifier global=((mswindows) . "white")
fallback=(((mswindows) . "white") ((msprinter) . "white") ((tty) .
[])) 0x208d> 0x215ce>

(face-background 'modeline) =>
#<color-specifier global=<unspecified> fallback=#<color-specifier
global=((mswindows) . "#D5CCBB") fallback=(((mswindows) . "Gray75")
((msprinter) . "white") ((tty) . [])) 0x2152> 0x21b3>

(face-property-instance 'modeline-mousable nil nil t) => nil

(face-property-instance 'modeline nil nil t) => nil
