Nothing, I'm afraid. The GIMP uses xor for marching ants, which
means that at mid-grey the marching ants are the same color as
the image. On a white image, they're black and on black, they're
white.
This is a known problem which has been reported in bugzilla (if
you search for xor you should find it), but it is unlikely to be
fixed any time soon.
Cheers,
Dave.
