Ahhh, so THAT's what you mean by "messed up".
I *think* this is actually a result of a change, not to xterm, but to
it's default configuration. The easiest way to change it back to the
way you like it is to set things explicitly in your ~/.Xdefaults file,
like so:
xterm*color4: blue2
Or like this, to be even more explicit:
xterm*color4: #0000A8
The hex is ordered: red green blue (obviously)
When you change it, of course, you have to run:
xrdb -load ~/.Xdefaults
If that doesn't fix it for you, then your xterm really is messed up.
Once you've done that, then xterm will use that color for color4 NO
MATTER WHAT! uxterm, xterm, hand-compiled xterms, they should all have
exactly the same color for color4, because you've explicitly set it.
I even know how to do the same thing for Apple's Terminal.app:
http://culater.net/software/TerminalColors/TerminalColors.php
Personally, I rather like the color it is now---I find it much easier
to read than before.
