Delphi: frame+colorbox=bug

Question

Delphi XE (It works fine in Delphi 2010).

Try: create a frame and a color box inside it. The color box -> set a Selected color other than black and a style = cbCustomColor (not cbCustomColors); paste the frame into the form, save a project.

Close the project. Reopen->errors as below:

I need this "custom color", who is freaking: me, a color box, a frame or whole Delphi? :) Thanks!!!

object Form1: TForm1
  Left = 0
  Top = 0
  Caption = 'Form1'

  ClientWidth = 447
  Color = clBtnFace
  Font.Charset = DEFAULT_CHARSET
  Font.Color = clWindowText
  Font.Height = -11
  Font.Name = 'Tahoma'
  Font.Style = []
  OldCreateOrder = False
  PixelsPerInch = 96
  TextHeight = 13
  inline Frame21: TFrame2
    Left = 72
    Top = -38
    Width = 320
    Height = 240
    TabOrder = 0
    ExplicitLeft = 72
    ExplicitTop = -38
