Debian emacs -nw and background colour

User-agent: Gnus/5.11 (Gnus v5.11) Emacs/22.0.97 (gnu/linux)

When I run emacs in an xterm under Debian, the background switches
from white (255,255,255) to grey90 right at the end of reading
.emacs.

Nothing I do seems to have any effect on this -- .Xdefaults,
editing the term/xterm.el file, etc -- with the exception of
running

emacs -nw -q --no-site-file 

and then eval-ing the contents of .emacs (and .gnus) separately. 

I've put a (debug) as the last statement of .emacs and the colour
change happens a few statements after it loads term/xterm --
however, it's in byte-code so it's hard to see what's going on.
