I noticed the same kind of problem (outside org-mode). It turns out that the special color "unspecified-bg" [1] does not work as expected when using it as the foreground color : the text is not made invisible and the aforementioned behaviour occurs. I guess that a workaround would be to test if "unspecified-bg" is returned and use nil in that case (which is the old behaviour iiuc). [1] unspecified-bg is the background value "if the terminal doesn't allow to query its default colors" (quoted from <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.bugs/5823>) -- N.
