I have a /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb.txt. I also created a symbolic link,
rgb->rgb.txt.

It does.
$ showrgb | grep black
0 0 0 black
Still, I get Warning: Color name "black" is not defined.
Attention Thomas Dickey: By the way, there's a wrap-around error when
that message is printed; it double-backs onto itself. TERM=xterm, latest
Xorg, xterm, and terminfo.
Despite the warning, the colors do take effect! That is, my .Xdefaults
contains
xterm*Foreground: white
xterm*Background: black
and the xterm gets the colors appropriately, although when it just
starts, the background is washed white, and only turns to black after I
do /usr/bin/clear.
