Didja ever get this fixed?

Haven't got around to looking at it yet, but I'm not surprised that
.Xdefaults is useless.  Mule controls its colors itself.  Probably
w3-mode defines a "face" for links, and TWICS's style screws it up.
For info on faces, "C-H i memacs RET mfaces RET" should get you what
you need.

It's not good policy to set stuff like that in a page, anyway (IMHO,
of course).  Users should set their own preferences on that stuff.
