On a graphical display, shell mode often displays illegible
yellow-on-white output because the default value of
`ansi-color-names-vector' contains "yellow". It would help to use
the same color like is used on a text terminal that is "yellow3".
Then other colors could be copied from `xterm-standard-colors' as well:
