This looks like it may be a bug introduced by some recent changes
Norbert made to the rc handling, but hard to say.
Make sure matplotlib is picking up the rc file you think it is by
running with --verbose-helpful and if so, send that file along and
we'll take a look.

Maybe, there is a connection, but I don't quite understand how it would
come.
Ticks are rendered as linemarkers. They are not filled, so, in the new
version, markeredgecolor should follow the line color automatically. If
you set the line color to white, the tick color should also become white.
Could you send along your matplotlibrc and specify in detail how to
reproduce the problem?
