I'm from a British English background too! and i've often wondered if they penalize candidates for using British English. not just spellings, but certain phrases and sentences are also quite different.
that said, i think they do allow for minor typos and by the same token, they must surely accomodate people taking the GRE in different parts of the world...Hopefully they understand color/colour, labor/labour, favorable/favourable..etc...
