I tried the following snip of code on build 0.137 under Linux
and ended up with a combo box that was all gray (no text), though the
entries were there to choose from when I dropped it down:

  Combo combo = new Combo(shell, SWT.BORDER | SWT.READ_ONLY | SWT.DROP_DOWN);
  combo.add("one little entry");
  combo.add("two of them");
  combo.add("three is too many");
  combo.setText("two of them");

Note that under Windows, this worked, ie the string "two of them"
appeared in the combo. If I called setText with a string that wasn't
previously added (like combo.setText("not there");), the box stayed gray
since it's read only and must be one of the choices.
