I don't use Aperture and first found the problem after noticing that pictures in LIghtroom, Preview and Safari were all having their colour profiles interpreted differently for images that fitted perfectly well into the sRGB colour space. Preview and Safari were displaying sRGB images very differently from each other on a colour-calibrated CRT. My fix was the same as yours: to make the CRT the default display in the ColorSync Utility. The CRT is not the display that hosts the menubar so I thought be it but moving the menubar to the CRT made no difference. It turned out that Lightroom had been getting things right, whether it displayed an sRGB imported image or a raw image in ProPhoto, which is (more or less) Lightroom's working space.
