Thanks a lot!

It turns out that for Emacs 21.4 on RHEL5 there is no xterm-256color.el 
at all. As instructed by the link you sent me, I downloaded the 
xterm-256color.el from

http://www.splode.com/~friedman/software/emacs-lisp/src/term/xterm-256color.el

and copied it into /usr/share/emacs/21.4/lisp/term/, then

      TERM=xterm-256color emacs -nw -q -f list-colors-display

shows much more colors, so does it under org-mode.

Thank you very much, Suresh!

Best,

Jing
