XTerm: Incorrect Colors in Printed Output

[admin]

Hi, again.

Does anyone know what the purpose of the following code is (from send_SGR of  
“print.c”):

> #if OPT_ISO_COLORS && OPT_PC_COLORS
>         if ((attr & FG_COLOR) && (fg != NO_COLOR)) {
>                 if (TScreenOf(xw)->boldColors
>                     && fg > 8
>                     && (attr & BOLD) != 0)
>                         fg -= 8;
>         }
> #endif

The foreground is decremented by 8, and this results in incorrect colors for  
me (for any foreground color of index >= 128 combined with BOLD).

I cannot figure out what this code is trying to do, and commenting it out  
seems to resolve the issue.  Is my XTerm built incorrectly?

Thank you.
