See
http://invisible-island.net/xterm/xterm.faq.html#grep_colors
(since the bug is most often reported for grep)
fwiw, I checked status on that yesterday, and gnome-terminal and konsole
were the only programs on my machine that would behave as you expect. It
is a bug in those applications. As for grep, it's a shame that there's
no portable way to do what the implementor attempted to do.
Everthing else (Linux console, xterm, rxvt, pterm, mlterm) matches that
aspect of vt100-compatibility.
