The problem is present even in the final release of Hardy. I managed to
correct it this way: (This sets-up Human-Murrine + Glider with white
window title text for you)

Let's first make a copy of the "Human-Murrine" theme:

1) sudo mkdir /usr/share/themes/MM_Human-Murrine/
2) sudo cp -r /usr/share/themes/Human-Murrine/* 
/usr/share/themes/MM_Human-Murrine/
3) sudo gedit /usr/share/themes/MM_Human-Murrine/index.theme
4) a) change Name to MM_Human-Murrine
   b) change GtkTheme to MM_Human-Murrine
   c) change MetacityTheme to Glider
   d) save the changes

Now it is time for correcting the black title text problem:

5) sudo gedit /usr/share/themes/MM_Human-Murrine/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
6) go to section > style "metacity-frame" < and change it so that it looks like 
this:

style "metacity-frame"
{
        fg[SELECTED] = @base_color
        bg[SELECTED] = mix (0.15, @fg_color, @selected_bg_color)
#       bg[SELECTED] = mix (0.25, @fg_color, @selected_bg_color)
}

(You do not need to change the mix parameter in the bg line. This is
because I like the title backgroud to be a bit lighter.)

7) save the changes
8) go to System/Preferences/Appearance and select the "MM_Human-Murrine" theme
