Well, yes.  I actually thought that my mistake was so basic that it
would be obvious even in this fragment.  Sorry.  Here's a complete
sample which I tried to make as short as possible.  I even eliminated
the subclassing (of QListViewItem), which is what I thought might be
producing the problem.  When I uncomment the line with the setEnabled
call, I get an attribute error.  I should also mention that with this
sample, the selection (after setSelected) is not gray.  Trying to get
the shading to blue was what led me to this problem in the first place. 
At this point, I don't know what it is in the full program that changes
the shading to gray.  Does the gray shading mean that the item is
disabled?
