Actually that's probably the _reason_ the problem arises: If TERM =
"xterm", then Emacs assumes a light background (it's a hack, but it was
decided when we discussed this a long time ago that light-background
xterm instances were more common than dark-background instances,
especially for newbies).

No doubt. But it seems pretty likely this is the problem Jari is
seeing, and the solution is obvious: he should customize
`frame-background-mode' to match his environment.
