Best I can tell, this is not actually a bug. I don't think you "cleared
everything" from Appearance > Background. You pressed "Remove Background
Image," but your theme registers a default image, either via the
BACKGROUND_IMAGE constant (old) or the default-image argument passed to
add_theme_support() (3.4).

As you "removed" that image, we have to print out a "background-image:
none", in order to override any background image references in the
stylesheet.

If your theme registers a default image, we are always going to print
body.custom-background.

But, if your theme does not register a default image and you do register a
default color, then there is a small bug: If you have no customizations at
all (nothing in the DB), then it is possible to end up with the
"custom-background" body class but not actually have the <style> block
printed. The class should not be there.

I've added a comment to the same ticket,
http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/20448.

If this behavior strikes you as off, please let us know.
