  Interesting.  Where did you find information on that resource?  (It's 
  apparently not in the manual page.)
 
 In this mailing list. It was in the following message:

  However, as we
 discussed just over a month ago on this list, the correct answer is not
 documented anywhere in the Debian packages. You can read the manpage
 for ls until hell freezes over and still not get color. ...

When things like this come up, can we please submit them as bug reports?
Nothing is going to get fixed if it isn't pushed back upstream.

 This has been asked recently. The color xterm package has been 
 abandonned with XFree 3.2. All you have to do is to add the following 
 line to you (global) Xdefaults.
 
 XTerm*customization: -color

It's a global Intrinsics resource. Maybe it is in the general X server page.

It works for other programs too. If you have a program of class 'Foo', 
putting the following in your ~/.Xdefaults (or more globally) will allow
you to put color-specific information in Foo-color:

#ifdef COLOR
*customization: -color
#endif
