Wrong value of background-mode on dark XTerm |

Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/23.0.94 (gnu/linux) |
Running 23.0.94.1 on an ``xterm -rv'' (reverse-video), I get
(frame-parameter nil 'background-mode)
==> light
which oviously reads to almost illegible text in certain modes.
With recent XTerm versions, the background colour can be retrieved with
the escape sequence ``Operating System Controls''
ESC ] 1 1 ; ? ESC \
which returns an escape sequence in the same format, but with the ``?''
replaced with an RGB specification
ESC ] 1 1 ; rgb:0000/0000/0000 ESC \
I have no idea what this escape sequence does to older XTerms, but the
XTerm version number can be retrieved with ``Send Device Attributes''
ESC [ > c
which returns something like
ESC [ > 0 ; 2 4 2 ; 0 c
where the 242 is the XTerm patchlevel.
