The comparison should be to the default now: red for the # (in Makefile)
and white for the comment body.  Using red for comments has been
explicitly rejected here for 8 color dark background display because it
make the text very hard to read.
With 5 foreground colors to choose from (white, black and red exclude),
there's not that much choice to afford to be too picky.
