I wonder.  I shot some Royal Gold 400 under flourescent light in a very new
children's museum in Honolulu recently. The lab prints were just a trifle
warm on the greenish side, but when I scanned them with Vuescan using white
balance for color, they looked as though they were shot in daylight.  Either
it's the lights or Vuescan or both.  Hope that narrows it down. :-)
