it's been 8 years, and I use gnu emcas from macports, and I tried the M-x list-colors-display, and it only shows 42 colors. I deleted ~/Library/Colors/Emacs.clr and re-launched the Emacs in the Mac, but it's same. It only shows 42 colors. I followed David Caldwell's suggestion as before, and then it shows 500 colors. I believe there is still a bug somewhere, and not sure how I can help on it. Let me know.
