Yes, in the sense that now the text is readable: the whole tooltip is
white on black, as it is the Emacs frame, so the text is legible but
the tooltip is hard to tell apart from the background (see attached
image).

I think default frame settings should not affect tooltips (perhaps
some mechanism like scroll-bar-{foreground|background} ?).
