I was mainly going off my experience with an Symbian Nokia phone, where where it had a non-UK firmware, would insist that Virgin was T-Mobile, for the network name and APN.
As soon as I put a UK firmware back on it, back came 'Virgin' as the network name.
I'm also pretty sure a T-Mobile Pulse phone, which was locked to T-Mobile, also didn't show 'Virgin' as a network name with the SIM in it.
Oh and according to Wikipedia, Virgin Mobile have their own MNC codes

It does look like it can be an issue with custom versions.
For instance, these people over on XDA has a similar issue with Cyaogenmod

Although I'm not sure what the solution is - probably to contact the people who made Stunner 2
