%%%Linux x86_64, ATI HD6950
Blender 2.66 RC with "error" and Blender 2.65a worked right

Problem: Setting grid color darker than relatively light background now not so easy and results hard readable wires or too light key grid lines (pic related).

To reproduce: Try to set background color to something lighter than default.%%%

%%%For me things work the same in 2.66RC as in 2.65a.
Just attach your startup,blend from 2.65a here that fails.%%%

%%%windows 7, nvidia gts 450
blender-2.65a-windows32
blender-2.66-RC-windows32

i can confirm the same problem
to reproduce

load factory settings
press 1 for front view
press 5 for orthographic view
change the theme to ubuntu ambiance
change the units to metric
then zoom in until it reads 10 centimeters

you will notice the grid loses its clarity between metres and centimeters
the grid appears all the same colour, making it harder to read
problem has nothing to do with theme or units
problem exists in all themes,
2.65 looked good, images attached
strangely but when i first start blender-2.66-RC up, the grid appears normal, as it was in 2.65,
problems just appear, when i load factory settings, or reset to default theme and change theme.%%%

%%%I don't know how i did it, but problem suddenly solved itself. Just manipulated with startup files, moving from one folder to other for test it once more and grid in both 2.65a and 2.66 RC became displayed correctly, so i lost "magic" configs for reproducing bug.
I think bug should be checked as Fixed / Closed, sorry for disturbing.%%%

%%%Disregard that! This is configs that worked fine for my current "3Ds Max" theme with light BG:
http://www.pasteall.org/blend/19563
http://www.pasteall.org/blend/19564 (really file should be named "userpref.blend1", i'm just got pasteall restriction for it's extension)
I got them by saving settings in 2.65a, then opening 2.66 RC and tweaking theme to my needs.

But when i'm remove this config or press "Load Factory Settings" in 2.66 RC i can't set up colors properly again! (got white + strong gray grid lines on light BG as shown in grid-problem.png)%%%

%%%This is all still very unclear to me.

Keep in mind that only in 2.66 we have split the user preferences in 2 files (now user settings and themes are in the userpref.blend).
You can read 2.65a startups fine in 2.66, but not read the 2.66 userpref in 2.65a.

I loaded both your files, and go to "Load Factor Settings" and colors just work as usual.%%%
