rats :-(

This will throw the development work of the group in question into a tail spin
for the moment. They are doing code development for an image processing
application for minerals exploration and they _need_ the 24 bit colour.

Will it be supported in the next release of the X server, and if so could an
interim patch be done? (I guess there are others who would like 24 bit also).

thanx for the reply Jeff,
