On this note I want to share solving my last problem with xchat
and 8-bit TrueColor. C3k doesn't have anything better at the moment.

The "couriour new" font was getting mangled colors as part of the
effort to anti-alias (what I assume is) a true-type or re-sized font.
Picking a bitmap font like "fixed" too take care of this.
Nice readable letters all in white.
