(Earlier, Stefan Laubig and Jakub Wilk sent similar bug reports about LXDE and an unspecified non-GNOME environment.) These are all reports of the group of bugs merged into #683744, and should be fixed in 3.12.3-2. I used black-on-white as the fallback, because that matches what will happen post-jessie with Gtk 3.14, which changes Gtk's built-in fallback theme from Raleigh (the ugly grey one) to Adwaita (the default GNOME 3.x theme). If you prefer light text on a dark background (like I do), please configure gnome-terminal to use another colour scheme option or a custom colour scheme. An alternative workaround is to install gnome-themes-standard and set the Gtk 3 theme to Adwaita as described in <https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=683744#34>, which will also make any other Gtk 3 applications look a lot better.
