I also have this same problem with both skype 2.1 and Opera 10.10 build 4742
I think this is a QT4 problem or a problem with the software that hooks GTK theme to QT4 applications (qgtkstyle I think), the odd thing is that Opera 10.0 alpha build did not have this problem. I was looking for a QT4 linked version of opera and I found this older version on some FTP (10.0 alpha) then I finally found the newest version on some other mirror and Installed it and found this bug. Later I installed skype and it seems to have the same issue. If I go back and install this older version of opera the menus look just fine.
I'm attaching a screenshot for opera 10.10 build 4742 which has the same issue as Skype 2.1
Please let me know if you need anything else. Thanks in advance.
