Changing the System->Preference->Appearance theme from ambiance to anything else eliminates the problem as the cpufreq applet seems to use the window text color which seems to be rather dark. Other applets are not drawing their text with the same color.

Running lucid version of gnome-applets does *not* clear up the problem.

Reverting to version 0.1.6.6 of light-themes (the theme for Ambiance) does clear up the problem. The text color of the cpufreq applet does not follow the window text color when it is installed and Ambiance is selected.
