I noticed that crawl can be told at compile time to use an 8 colour
terminal map, and then you can select a colour to replace dark grey.
Look in initfile.cc and search for COL_TO_REPLACE_DARKGREY. Maybe you
know a way of autodetecting the terminal capabilities, or otherwise this
compile time thing can be turned into a run time configuration option.
