(hint-vertcols) can help with this.

something like this should work:
(clear)

(with-primitive (build-cube)
     (hint-vertcols)
     (pdata-index-map!
         (lambda (i c)
             (hsv->rgb (vector (/ (floor (/ i 4)) 6) .5 .5)))
         "c"))


> Am I misunderstanding exactly what colour is applied to? Is this a property
colour is applied to the whole primitive, unless you use 
(hint-vertcols), when you can change the colour of the vertices.

best,
gabor
