My issue started with the last dev build (r21674): over and over I had
to change the text style from Fill: None, Stroke: black (shown in the
status bar style indicator) when creating new text objects (I worked on
test cases for bug #388257 while updating from r21615 to r21674). The
text style behavior in my perception definitely changed between these
two revisions.
Resetting preferences.xml several times, with both version, I still
can't pin down what exactly changed or fails, except that with r21615 I
didn't have repeatedly black outlined text as default.
The 'Tool's own style' preference settings revert back to 'Fill: Unset,
Stroke: Unset' in both versions, but on canvas different settings are
applied to new text objects.

Yes, I mainly used the text tool controls bar because I needed
repeatedly only basic text attributes (name, size, color). The 'bold'
button works for me but not with all fonts, 'italic' works only to
toggle it off after applying an italic/oblique style in the font dialog.

btw - the build date of the dev builds (osx, modevia) in the about
screen didn't update (last three builds all show 'built Jun 10 2009' on
my system)
