You can change this by setting the color4 and color12 resources to the
previous defaults; 'blue3' and 'blue'. They now defults to 'DogerBlue1'
and 'SteelBlue1' apparently to improve contrast, according to the x.org
changelog.


$ xrdb -merge
XTerm.vt100.color4: blue3
XTerm.vt100.color12: blue
^D
$ xterm


You could also put the two lines above in your .Xdefaults file, and make
sure that this file is loaded on startup.
