Bug#670638: xterm color options no longer work with 278-1 in Debian Testing

Package: xterm
Version: 278-1

Hello,

After a recent upgrade of xterm (278), text no longer shows up in
xterm with the options I normally use:

xterm -bg black -fg white

The screen is black in xterms now, it does not honor the foreground
color? Unless I run it without these arguments, I have downgraded to
xterm 261 (still in the FTP dir) and all works normally again.

I also tried, e.g.: -fg green, red, etc, the -fg is no longer working.
The background color is honored, the -fg is not.
