Comment(by elb):

 OK, this is far more useful than that original report.  The problem is not
 at all severe, nor is it really what you described.

 It appears that the basic problem here is that one particular color of
 blue that we chose has poor contrast against the gray.  All other colors
 (with the exception of bright blue, which is somewhat brighter) seem to me
 to be substantially similar to those rendered by mIRC, and certainly more
 similar than those chosen by X-Chat.  Note that X-Chat does not even
 distinguish between red and bright red background colors.

 If you can find out what colors are what in that display, it would be
 helpful; I suspect our problem color is either "teal" or "cyan", which
 correspond to mIRC colors 10 and 11, respectively.
