Rafael's workaround also worked for me. Attached is a meld diff showing the difference between the files. The file on the left (/home/gg2xp/tempdir/G/%gconf-tree.xml) is from a standard 9.10 Ubuntu (Gnome) machine, the file on the right (/home/gg2xp/tempdir/%gconf-tree.xml) is from a 9.10 Ubuntu test machine where the "enhance contrast colors" was enabled at the GDM login screen.
