bug#2501: 22.2.1: terminal mrxvt white - fonts are unreadable

[Andrew Hyatt]

I can reproduce this on an xterm brought up on OS X in Emacs 25, so I'm
removing the unreproducible tag.

IMHO, Emacs should have a way to configure all faces to be legible. We
already have shr-color-check thanks to Julien Danjou, it should be an
interesting project for someone to use that to correct all faces. I
think trying to squash each instance of an illegible font without that
sort of solution would be a never-ending task, considering all the
themes out there.
