or par(col = "white"), as Marc has suggested.
legend()'s source code makes it very straightforward to add an argument 'text.col' for this purpose, and I have already done so in my development version. The question is really if the default should be text.col = par("col") or text.col = par("fg")
I'd currently tend for par("col") , but the tendency is weak.
I agree, I would expect the lines around the legend's box in par("fg"), but the font in par("col"). And indeed, that's already the case if both values have been set in par().
