* bug#43891: 26.3; Wrong background-mode on gnome-terminal 3.38

On gnome-terminal 3.38 (and possibly on 3.36, 3.34 and future 
versions as well) Emacs is setting the background-mode to light 
while I'm running a dark background. On xterm or ttys it works 
fine.   The following snippet fix this issue: 
 
 (setq frame-background-mode 'dark) (set-background-color "black") 
 (set-foreground-color "white")

This is the same bug reported in #29716[1], which was fixed for 
gnome-terminal 3.22.  A solution made by Noam Postavsky is found 
on #29716 as well. Perhaps there is a way to fix this definetely 
for gnome-terminal, I believe it affects many users.

Thank you!

In gnome-terminal 3.38, the version string in xterm--version-handler is:

"65;6200;1"

So, just hacking blindly without any clue what this is, the following
patch fixes the issue for me.

Does anybody know whether this makes sense or not?

Nobody had an opinion here, so I pushed this to the trunk now.  It seems
to fix the problem, and should probably not regress anything.
