Comment body colourless in eight-colour terminal.

User-agent: Gnus/5.11 (Gnus v5.11) Emacs/22.0.50 (gnu/linux)

Using Debian GNU/Linux, in a stock xterm or on the console, run

        TERM=linux emacs -nw -Q -fg black -bg white -f global-font-lock-mode 
~/.emacs
        TERM=linux emacs -nw -Q -fg white -bg black -f global-font-lock-mode 
~/.emacs

The comment characters (;) are coloured red, but comment bodies (after ;'s) are
the same colour as ordinary text.

I contend that a better default would be for the comment bodies to be the same
colour as the comment characters.  This is already the case when running under
X11 and under Emacs 21.

The attached patch should have the desired effect.
