possibly because sometime last century I spent about half an hour
stealing bits of the latex format code into miniltx.tex until the color
and graphics packages loaded without error into plain, and no one
has tried \pagecolor with plain xetex since then?

you don't need the logo, an empty \centerline is enough
More exactly the definition of
\def\set@page@color
in xetex.def looks wrong, but no time to debug now may look later but
anyway I'm not sure why it doesn't use the one from dvips.def which
seems to work ok with xetex/xdvipdfmx
\def\set@page@color{\special{%
background \current@color}}
