The terminal frame defines the default face with unspecified-bg.
But when you start the X frame, the default face has background white (or
rather the X pixel value for white).
This face is still realized when you start the second terminal face.
Apparently pixel value for "white" in X translates to gray in an xterm. I
don't know exactly how the pixel values in the terminal case gets translated.
