It appears the major issue was not actually x2go, as after running into the color problem on multiple systems that were built by others, using a fresh Centos/Rhel install made the colors work properly while using xterm. It seems there is something fundamentally wrong with the existing system in regards to how it's using the rgb.txt file and x2go connecting to it, though what that is right now I am not entirely sure.

So ... I guess that means compare /etc/*, compare list of installed packages and package versions, compare individual scripts like .bashrc (not sure if xterm has a user-specific config file somewhere as well), check if LD_PRELOAD and if all else fails, check the ldd and strace output of all the executables involved.
Sounds like a whole lot of work. Hope you'll be able to figure this out.
In the meantime, can we close the bug, since you stated it's not X2Go-related?
