Having a setup running beowulf with an Xfce Desktop, and whatever theme
I choose, I get white links on clear backgrounds.

In applications that support it (like evolution), if I drift away from
system fonts and switch back to them, the links are black (and
readable!) again.

This oddity also appear in another way when text is highlighted, which
make it unreadable too.

I remember having such fonts problem when ascii came out, but I do not
recall the fix. I remember some themes were eventually corrected though.

Any hints?
