Xterms have a set of resources for defining vt100 colours. try adding
the following to you .Xdefaults:

!
! vt100 colours for a dark bg
!
XTerm.VT100.color0: #000000
XTerm.VT100.color1: #FF0000
XTerm.VT100.color2: #008800
XTerm.VT100.color3: #D2D400
XTerm.VT100.color4: #0000D2
XTerm.VT100.color5: #D200D2
XTerm.VT100.color6: #00D2D2
XTerm.VT100.color7: #D2D2D2

you can load the values from your .xsession with something like

  xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults

hope this helps.
