Comment (by RiccardoB.):

 I confirm the issue: on 4.9.1 the color for icons.base is set to
 {{{#82878c}}} but the admin icons are colored by this css:

 {{{
 #adminmenu div.wp-menu-image::before {
     color: #a0a5aa;
     color: rgba(240,245,250,.6);
 }
 }}}

 so in previous @robsat91 temporary fix the {{{#9ea3a8}}} should become
 {{{#a0a5aa}}}.

 In addition we cannot set the correct rgba value because
 {{{paintElement}}} function included in {{{wp-admin/js/svg-painter.js}}}
 accepts only colors in hex formats according to lines 186-189:


 {{{
 // only accept hex colors: #101 or #101010
 if ( ! color.match( /^(#[0-9a-f]{3}|#[0-9a-f]{6})$/i ) ) {
         return;
 }
 }}}
