First thought: edit the module to not do it?

I am no expert on this, but I was screwing around installing ncurses awhile back, and one of the tips I came across is that you can start xterm with a user defined terminfo type like " xterm -tn xterm-color ". Now in /usr/share/terminfo/x there are a bunch of definitions for xterm, maybe try a few of them. I think there is a way to define your own too, with the program 'tic'.

Once you find the right one, you can define it and add it to your .Xresources file like: 

You can tell *xterm* to do that by adding

        #ifdef        *COLOR*
        *XTerm**termName: *xterm*-*color*
        #endif

to your .Xresources file (or whatever file is being fed to xrdb to set
resources). If you're not using anything, then

        echo '*XTerm**termName: *xterm*-*color*' | xrdb

in .xinitrc - before you start any xterms - will do the job, except
that will also set it in the unlikely event that you are on an X
server that doesn't support *color*.

I'm in over my head here, so I suggest you do a groups.google search yourself for "terminfo linux".
