Yes, you can can have many background layers. I ran into the same
problem that I think you are seeing: not all of my legend was showing
up. It was syntax with the legend definitions, unfortunately I can not
remember the details. Try changing the order of the layers in the
legend, and/or removing them one at a time. This will help you find
the problem layer. And look at the class names in the layer definition
itself.
