Oh. Try putting the fill argument outside the panel and see if the  
panel handles it in the manner you expect:

bp3 <- bwplot(voice.part ~ height, data = singer, main = "fill arg  
outside bwplot\n1] 'bisque1' 'blue4' 'burlywood3' 'chartreuse3'  
'coral3' 'cyan2' 'darkgray' 'darkorange", fill=colors()[(2:11)*10],
               panel = function(...) {
                 panel.grid(v = -1, h = 0)
                 panel.bwplot( ...)
        })
  bp3

And I hope my suggestion now "works".
