Thank you! I had a similar issue, and this fixed it. While I love Emacs in general, its outright hostility to backwards compatiblity really grinds me. Any time I install a new version, its a garunteed 4+ hours getting my .emacs to work again, and most of the time I'll still flat out lose stuff that used to work fine. In this case I've had the (set-foreground-color and (set-background-color entries in my .emacs for 25 years. That's a quarter of a century! But as soon as I installed version 27, it doesn't work any longer.
