The header-line face, as defined in faces.el, inherits from mode-line,
and mode-line has the inverse-video attribute set. When a theme
specifies both foreground and background colors for the mode-line
face, those colors specify the face completely, so the inverse-video
attribute is disabled. But the themes you mention as deviant specify
only one of the two colors, so the inverse-video attribute stays.
You can see all this if you invoke customize-face.
