Display type:		NG1

These aren't urgent problems, and they're SGI's problems not ours, but
since I told mbarker I'd write down probs. I found, here it is.

The foreground/background colors are set too specifically, overriding
defaults in my .Xresources that work on other platforms.

Some programs, e.g. capture set only one of foreground or background to
non-default.  For resources that do reverse video, this results in
black-on-black menus.
