Hi

I've played with CDT syntax highlighting and found that i cannot change 
foreground color of uncategorized text output (it's always black) in makefile 
editor. .cpp/.h highlighting works well.

This is IMHO a serious problem for folks with disabilities that need some high
contrast. Even when changing the default editor or default system
background/foeground, the makefile editor ignores this.

you can work around ( ugly way ) the problem by adding the following line with your own color choice (RGB) :
org.eclipse.cdt.make.ui.editor.default=230,230,250
to the preference file :
<workspace_dir>/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings/org.eclipse.cdt.make.ui.prefs

PS : tested on eclipse 3.1.1 with cdt 3.0.1
