Comment 7 for bug 949271

This seems to be a issue Netbeans has with "dark menus" or Toolbars. This happens on every theme with a dark menu I've Tested So far. Ubuntu's Default included.

I'm not sure, Does any one think can we can specify any variables differently to make it work?

I'm 80-90% Sure Netbeans uses/makes it's self look like your GTK2 theme.
My experience of Apps that "Clone or copy" your theme are they may need to be updated.

Netbeans appears to use the same or the wrong text color. It may need to be updated to use the right colors based on your theme.
For example inherit the text color of your " dark menu".

Either that or the transition to light menus in some spots threw it off? because it was using that theme variable?
