I was able to set TERM=term-256color and get 256 from
(display-color-cells) as tested in GNU Emacs 22.0.95.6
(i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.10.8) of 2007-03-18 on Fedora 6
gnu/linux.

However, (list-display-colors) only displays 7 colors namely black red
green yellow blue magenta cyan and white in color, the rest are
displayed with the default background.

Best,
