 I installed emacs with the cmd: "port install emacs +gtk" (on Mac Studo,
 macOS Monterey 12.4)
 Everything seemed fine, and I got "emacs @28.1_1+gtk+nativecomp+x11"

 When run, its frame displayed as expected; both the menu bar and tool bar
 are of light background with black text.
 Immediately after I move the mouse pointer, both bars changed to be in
 black background with gray text on the menu bar (and all levels of menus)

 What is even more weird, with a large file open (such as Emacs manual)
 that spans several pages and when I scroll the page down and up, the menu
 bar will change to light background with black text, and change back to
 dark mode immediately after I move the mouse pointer.

 There is no such issue when it's run remotely through remote X.
