This indicates you have only 8 colors, not 16.

Doing TRT with just 8 colors is a tough nut, since there are 11 file
types for which Eshell uses colors.  Maybe colors should be disabled
for such terminals?  Or maybe some faces should have no color
definitions for 8-color terminals, leaving only the most frequent and
important files shown in color?
