  The menus may have a "gradient" or "bitmap" backgroundPixmap.
Check with editres:
"Commands->Get Tree"
select the xterm window
select the "fontMenu" toggle
"Commands->Show Resource Box"
check if the backgroundPixmap is anything other than "XtUnspecifiedPixmap"

  This may happen because menu entries are painted with a xor gc, and the
effect is more visible if you are running at 8bpp.

  If this is the case, you can add:
XTerm*SimpleMenu.backgroundPixmap:  XtUnspecifiedPixmap
to your $HOME/.Xdefaults
