Oh.  I see what you mean now.  I thought that the brightening of colors
when A_BOLD is used was a quirk of ncurses, but it turns out that it is
a setting of terminal emulators (that is on by default).  When it is
switched off (on xterm with +pc, on vte-based emulators by unchecking
"Show bold text in bright colors"), using 'bold,' with normal colors
works fine.

So I've dropped this patch.  The others have been pushed to master.
