mc - B/W in root gnome-terminal - design or problem?

I noticed that running mc in a root terminal su- not su without the - 
causes mc to be displayed in b/w. I don't see this behavior in a regular 
user either.

Running mc in a normal screen shell is displayed in color.

I believe mutt and other programs do the same thing.

running setup displays in color.

Is anyone else seeing something like this?

Out of curiousity, I tried the experiment in xterm. mc and mutt were b/w 
for any user.
