By deisgn, I think.  We use context (code, comment, string) to font-lock,
and each display renders the font-lock selection differently (red, blue,
italics, etc....).

So it's not by chance that font-locking differents by terminal display; you
have to adjust the particular display rendering work.

(at least this was by design eons ago, I've not looked at recent fontlock
code, and am assuming it's not significantly changed).
