I installed vim-powerline and was wondering how to change the backlground colour of the normal mode -- currently set to #adf000 according to the Gimp -- to something else. I assume that the change will be in autoload/Powerline/Colorschemes/XXX.vim somewhere, I just cannot find it.

The colours of vim-powerline should be located in your .vim directory. If you use a plugin manager it may be .vim/bundle/ followed by the vim-powerline/autoload/Powerline/Colorschemes tree. The file you are looking for should be the default.vim.
The colour setting you are looking for is :
. \ Pl#Hi#Segments(['mode_indicator'], {¬
. . \ 'n': ['base03', 'green', ['bold']],¬
. . \ 'i': ['darkestcyan', 'white', ['bold']],¬
. . \ 'v': ['white', 'orange', ['bold']],¬
. . \ 'r': ['white', 'violet', ['bold']],¬
. . \ 's': ['white', 'gray5', ['bold']],¬
. . \ }),¬
n is for normal, i for insert, v for visual, r for replace and s for selection(?). Additional colours can be defined in the call Pl#Hi#Allocate({¬ section.
