Emacs 21.2 is using black on black for the default colors
in non-X11 mode when the termcap capabilites AF and BF
are present for the TERM I am using.

Using -bg and -fg works OK, but the default color scheme of
black on black is not all that readable (!).

Is this a known bug?

No, this is not a known bug.

What were the colors of the terminal before you invoked Emacs?

Also, please read the entry in etc/PROBLEMS whose header is "Colors
are not available on a tty or in xterm" and see if some info there
helps you understand the cause for the problem.
