Yes, I definitely see a problem when a face called "hi-gold" is
displayed as red on some devices.

Are you saying that none of the shades of red in rgb.txt is good
enough to use on GUI frames where "red" is used on TTYs?  I find that
hard to believe.  What about DarkOrange, what about Coral, what about
OrangeRed, what about LightSalmon[1-3], what about sienna[1-3], what
about IndianRed1, what about tomato[1-3], chocolate[1-3], etc.?  Call
it "hi-reddish" if you must, just don't have something called "gold"
look red on TTYs, please.
