test_curses fails for me by default (running on Fedora 35 in KDE's Konsole):

```
[ncoghlan@thechalk cpython]$ echo $TERM
xterm-256color
[ncoghlan@thechalk cpython]$ ./python -m test -u curses test_curses
0:00:00 load avg: 0.88 Run tests sequentially

The active terminal info indicates that the default text colour is indeed bright white (assuming I'm reading the infocmp output correctly), so it feels like (15, 0) is just missing from the set of permissible "old" colour pairs in the test case:

```
[ncoghlan@thechalk cpython]$ infocmp -L | grep initialize_color
        initialize_color=\E]4;%p1%d;rgb\072%p2%{255}%*%{1000}%/%2.2X/%p3%{255}%*%{1000}%/%2.2X/%p4%{255}%*%{1000}%/%2.2X\E\,
```
