Yes, it looks like a bug. "-bg black" should have left your
foreground color (is it white?) alone.
Please debug this if you can. As I said, I don't have an easy way to

You could use the exact color definition. Emacs now supports the
X-style #RGB color specs on tty's as well. You could also use
whatever that default color is mapped to in your
tty-defined-color-alist.
