[android-developers] Inflater crashes when using custom atrributes

Whole project with example is here: https://github.com/novemberox/ThemingSupport

I've got some custom attr in attrs.xml like:
<attr format="color|reference" name="myforeground" />
<attr format="color|reference" name="mybackground" />
<attr format="color|reference" name="foretoback" />

Latter I use them in my own theme:
<style name="MyTheme" parent="android:Theme.Black">
<item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
<item name="myforeground">@color/foreground_tur</item>
<item name="mybackground">@color/background_tur</item>
<item name="foretoback">@color/foreground_to_background</item>
</style>

Then I can use those values in TextView that is in LinearLayout:
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="foreground"
android:textColor="?attr/myforeground" />
And this works just great. But if I use the same TextView as ListView
element odd things start to happen.

If I pass Context to Adapter using "MyActivity.this" it works good,
but when I pass as Context "Activity.getApplicationContext()" inflater
doesn't see my custom attributes and fail with:

So problem is that when we use custom attributes and then access them
using "ApplicationContext" they are invisible for it, while
"ActivityContext" sees them. Is it android bug, or am I missing
something?
