Assuming this is the same as the aptitude bug, it's not quite fixed.
I installed 225-1 today. I used to be able to get the buffer name in
emacs drawn in all sorts of interesting colors; now I can't. But it
still showed up as black on black instead of black on white once.
I can't reliably reproduce it though, so things are much better. If
I figure out how, I'll report a new bug. Thanks!
