Monitors prefs pane causing highlighting problem

I've recently started using a iMac (27-inch, Late 2009) 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 running macOS High Sierra 10.13 (17A405). I've installed the macOS 10.13 supplemental update.

When using the Monitors system preferences pane to change to a colour profile I've created using the calibration assistant, windows in list view get all their items highlighted - including all the column names.

This mostly affects the Finder, but it's apparent in other applications which use a list view such as Activity Monitor.

Sometimes, items all get highlighted in black but I've failed to find a consistent trigger for that problem.

The problem only occurs when I switch to the colour profile I created with the calibration assistant. Switching between any other colour profiles - the ones supplied with the OS - causes no issues.

When this problem first appeared, I suspected it might have been caused by something copied over from my previous iMac using Migration Assistant, so I re-installed the operating system and I've copied my data over manually without copying over any preferences, application support folders, or anything like that at all to eliminate that possibility.

I've also restarted holding down cmd-opt-p-r to zap the PRAM, just in case, but that made no difference.

I'd appreciate any hints as to the cause of this problem and what I might do to solve it.

Thanks in advance.
