I'm just throwing spaghetti at the wall here, but maybe it will at least
point in the right direction.

On my Debian box, there is a symlink from /usr/share/X11/rgb.txt to
/etcX11/rgb.txt. Is it possible this symlink is non-existent or broken? 
Also,
do you know which file xterm reads from? I found a thread where someone
had to move the rgb.txt file from /user/share/X11 to /lib/X11 to as 
that's where
xterm was looking for it...
