Here's what the man page says:

If that's not what is happening, I suggest you mention it to Thomas
(CC'd).
Right. With -rv (or without any [-+]rv) you get the fg and bg
colors specified on the command line; with +rv they are swapped.
Expected behavior is that -rv swaps the fg and bg and +rv doesn't,
i.e. the opposite of what actually happens.
(And my friend acked the official bug report, so hopefully it won't
b e lost.)
Official report? I didn't realize Tom had a bugzilla for xterm...
where did you file the bug?
