The code in startup.el already invokes xterm.el for names of the form
xterm-<foo> IIRC.

That wouldn't make any sense in the typical use of running in a remote
telnet session.

By the way, even if the default for the xterm background is light,
IIRC vanilla RedHat systems default to some nasty colour scheme with a
dark background, and they're probably some of the most common ones of
interest to us.  I can't check at the moment in case I've
mis-remembered.
