Title:
  latest update breaks user CSS / Accessibility settings

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  After the update to firefox 41.0+build3-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 was applied
  on my x86_64 14.04.3 LTS system,  the firefox 'about:' internal URL dialogs
  displayed in white text on a white background .
  This now includes dialogs like the "Preferences" / "Menu" dialogs. 
  So effectively it renders the whole browser's menu system unusable
  if you have selected the : about:preferences#content :
       Preferences -> Colors -> "Override the colors specified by my selections above"
  to be "Always" and you specify a dark background color (eg #202020) and a light
  text color (eg #ffffff ) then all the menus are in white text and white background.

  The previous firefox version correctly applied my "Override Colors Always" setting to the 
  "about:*"  internal dialogs .

  How can I get this behaviour back ?

  Under KDE / Qt, ALL other applications correctly display in white text
  on black background .
